I don't know about our D-Line being better next season. Fili was big in clogging the middle and Kyle was good in coverage. When you consider we have a brand new LB corp, I'm not comfortable with Malik and Everson being the ends considering both are speed pass-rushers.
Kyle Moore was good in coverage, because he wasn't great at rushing the QB,
. His long arms made him good in coverage. Fili will be missed, but I thinkthe speed at the ends is going to make the D-Line better. A rotation of Malik, Everson, Kennard and Perry,
. I think Tupou and Armstead will make a solid DT tandem. If Mays comes back,
. We will have a solid defensive unit, young, but solid.
The LB corp is young, but Galippo has been filling in for Maualuga (when he gets gassed) this past season. They looked good in mop up duty, let's see ifthey put it together. I feel good about the unit stepping in. Unlike 2005,
. People forget that the defense was garbage that year, especially after theheart of the D, Lofa, bolted early.
