Reminds me of when the 49ers brought in Whitner, a lot of people thought he was washed up at the time.
I think he's just copying what Tampa Bay did in 1995-1996. Tampa drafted Warren Sapp, Derrick Brooks , Regan Upshaw, and Marcus Jones over a two year period. And he saw first hand how a strong front seven helped him cover DB's as a safety better. Tampa's defense went from 27th to 2nd over a two year span.
Here's to hoping we improve to a top 15-20 D. My goal would be 16, better than half the leagues Defenses.
