Buckner
Thomas

Hell I don't know. That's why they play the games. I'm looking forward to finding out.
I predict there will be eight top five players.

Saleh does like to rotate

I think Keith Reaser will surprise this year and be one of the Top 5 on the D.
1. Bowman
2. Buckner
3. Dumervil
4. Ward
5. Foster

Big question marks with the health/durability of Bowman, Ward, Reid, and even Robinson and Foster. Wouldn't be surprised to see Malcolm Smith playing a huge role for us. Reid should thrive in him new role as well. I'm not expecting much from S. Thomas as a rookie. Foster however, he should make an immediate impact if he can stay on the field.

My list as well. It would be ideal if all those guys realized their potential and became the new core of the team moving forward. You'd have a core player at every level of the defense.

Yeah, covers all three levels...if Buckner and Thomas kick ass then AA, Elvis, Lynch, Mitchell, etc. have great seasons benefiting from them.

If Foster has a great season, it ripples over to Bowman and Brooks/Smith.

And if Robinson and Ward have nice sessions, well, the defense as a whole start to rise quickly.
