plus former Hawks safety Keanu Neal converted to LB

^^ if they stay healthy, best LB unit in the league? They all seem to be north-south stop run, sack type guys but if Parsons or Cox can cover ..

Their D was bottom 10 in most defensives stats last year. That's why 8 of their 11 picks this year were on the defensive side.

Of course a contributing factor was their offense taking a step back due to their O-line issues, Dak out, and Zeke not having a great year.

If Dak is close to 100%, and their D is even a little better, they could have a pretty big turn around. I don't like saying that, but it is a real possibility.

That being said, I'm hoping they get skull-dragged tonight!
