All the guys we are moving have some questions about thier game.
Austin a part time boom or bust.
Quinn a player trending down per his salary and plays and flexibility in Defencive assignments although with a competitive heart..
Ogletree an risk vs power directed at him albiet having leadership and apparent dedication to preparation.
Tru Jo inconsistent play for dollar .
They are we're players we could have gotten by with for another couple of years yes ....
But when it mattered most maybe no scheme could have covered some of thier similar weaknesses .
Just hammer at them until they break down and you beat the Rams .
In Johnson's case you nickle and dime him and he more times than not gives up the yards.
They will have a ball Hawking secondary now with a sharper edge.
They will need to get LB who get off blocks and have more power and weight with some ability to get drops vs and blitzes inside .
They have to be more able to clog running lanes vs bad angles or getting completely washed out attempting to fill bettween the tackles.
They need to have flexibility at OLB to either put hand down in two point stance and rush or fall back in coverage.
Ekuban is at least one candidate .
Maybe Littleton can beef up and be another one of the 4.
LB recreation will be huge .
I expect any new adds to be mainly focused as run defenders and that they will keep pass rush assignments as unpredictable as possible.
Big reliance on man to man at CB to make this work up front would be no brainer
