Vernon, Snacks, Ogletree, Carter, Barwin, Jenkins, Collins, Adams, Tomlinson THOSE names just pop at YOU amongst others I didnt LIST. Gettleman is GOING all in and I love IT. Hopefully Collins can play at HIS 2016 LEVEL but we need Andrew Adams NEXT to him. Footsy who shies away FROM any contact only brought DOWN Collins level. Give me THIS defense I mentioned and WOW we are ready. Beal as well? I am READY for week 1. Gettleman TRIM the fat PLAY the best dont just play a guy cause he was an earlier PICK. good post except for your obsession with darian thompson. |

We look good on paper. I need to see with my eyes if this paper tiger has a bite.

I like TO make good points. SEEMS the switch has GOT more people READING my posts and getting them instead of JUST assuming the WORST about me Nick, you were spot on about Footsie, we all can see it now. But you didn't mention Grabsie in your list of players that pop out - are there concerns with him that we should be aware of, too? |

We look good on paper. I need to see with my eyes if this paper tiger has a bite. Well, I’m with you on this. There have been so many seasons that I thought we were set, only to be disappointed. I think there may be some birthing and growing pains at the start of the season. I’ve been a fan for 60 years now and I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. I think it will take a few games for this team and coaching staff to hit its stride, so I’m not going to panic if the season doesn’t start out as I hope. |

The names sound good on paper, but moving to a 3-4 is going to take time to gel. However, there is a huge concern at CB. I'm hoping Beal can get up to speed as quickly as possible, because after Jenkins, it's a crap-shoot. |

We look good on paper. I need to see with my eyes if this paper tiger has a bite. I agree we need see it. We've been down this road before. Remember the Eagles dream team a few years ago. Crash and burn! We need to be patient and see some wins. I want to see a running game. BAM!! until then I'm on the sidelines with this team. |

I don't see any type defense to write home about. I hope your right I see 4players that I think we can count on. Snacks, Ogletree, Collins, and Jenkins. Vernon has been a question mark since he's been here imo. But I do agree about Adams getting the start at FS.
Do you see any pass rush in the combo of names mentioned ? The 3rd rd draft choice Carter (hopefully) ? Should be tough vs run, secondary "could be good ". Will need that pass rush.
I fear this defense is more wishful thinking than fact. Hope they come thru.

I was impressed with the Sam Beal acquisition in the supplemental draft and this Connor Barwin move was off the radar but could work out brilliantly ...Reminds me of the Chris Long signing for Philadelphia last year

I don’t know man. This defense in many ways has me more worried then the offense and that is scary. Can Veron make the switch to LB? Do we have enough DBs? Can we get a solid pass rush? Idk but we are going to find out.

Idk but we are going to find out. Yeah, I agree with your assessment and would add the switch to the 3/4 as another major concern. I am not saying that that the defense can't be good, just that there are more questions than answers at this point.... Like another poster mentioned, I actually think I may have more faith in the offense at this point and that is scary as hell since it has been trash for the last two years.... |

I think it's gonna take time but Vernon has played in this type of front in Miami,think it might even fit him better, really worried about the corners Jenkens in his career had one elite year 2016 he may be nothing more then average, hoping he is the 2016 version. |

Crash and burn! We need to be patient and see some wins. I want to see a running game. BAM!! until then I'm on the sidelines with this team. Me too. I'm too old for runaway optimism. I don't worry to much about the changed defensive scheme since I don't think it's possible to get worse than worst defense in the league. |

You are never too old for runaway optimism. I actually don't see the point in being anything but blindly optimistic heading into a new season. There really is no downside to being happy and looking forward to a great season envisioning great things. 4000 all purpose yards for our rookie back. 60 TD passes for Eli. 18 INTs for Jenkins. ETC. Because really, who cares if it doesn't come true, fun to hope for it now before the reality of the season hits home like a shovel to the face. Because it won't suck less if you spent the off season miserable too. |

I just want to see the run game come alive. I truly believe its the catalyst for the team and Eli. Lets hope it happens!

We look good on paper. I need to see with my eyes if this paper tiger has a bite. I agree. I like everything but I am still optimistic .It will take time for this group to jell and learn the new system,remember we will be playing bot a 3-4 and 4-3 at times. If you temper your outlook you will find you enjoy the wins more and not be as disappointed by the loss's.  +1 |
