I agree. The cupboard is hardly bare. But is another 50+ sacks season on the horizon? They've only ever done that a handful of times in their history. And pass rush is the straw that stirs the (defensive) drink in the NFL.
I also agree that there is good potential from the kids they drafted- B. Brown, E. Brown, Garrett. But they will take time. If ONE of them can be a consistent rotational contributor this year it will be a plus.
I've said before I think the Rams can take a step or two back on defense and still be a better team overall. Get the offense back to the top 10 and special teams to top 15, etc.
