Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

The KEY CHANGE for defense is having Del Rio and RR run a 4-3, which better suits our players talents, PLUS far better leadership and defense schemes. Del Rio has taken defensive teams to the TOP FIVE and I think he will do it again HERE, although we are probably a year away from getting to those heights.

However, I think we will get to the top 10 in defense THIS Year. We will have a fierce rush, and we have backups like Kerrigan and Ionnadis to keep everyone super fresh.


I think that if we took last year’s defense and JUST brought in Del Rio, he would at least make that defense “average”, just with his playcalling, schemes, instruction, leadership, etc. Dumping Manusky and bringing in Del Rio is that important.

I think the addition of Del Rio, drafting Chase and that addition of Davis at S and Fuller at CB, plus maybe one or two draft picks/UDFA who can add depth or compete for a defensive spot will help to transform this squad. The defense will be a more complete and competitive unit than the offense in 2020.
