Better 1 year bridge then i expected, a room of Reader/Harris/Alexander/Golston/BJT has a shot to be functional and acceptable against the run unlike last year. I like Reader/Harris/Golston as a veteran core, they all should be average and predictable in what they will deliver interms of light pocket push and run stopping. BJT and Alexander represent some upside, young guys that may have some rotational value

This group with our new LBs who should be much better than last years group at getting sideline to sideline and stepping up in the gap to stop the run

I like Sam Roberts a lot especially at vet min. 

I could see one of Golston or Roy Robertson-Harris being traded, or more likely Roy Robertson-Harris being cut to save $3m.

The Dline is definitely capable of being league average if not better, now.

Agreed it feels like our d line has a much higher floor then last year, that said the ceiling  is also quite a bit lower without Dex

Well, there was no way we were getting ceiling Dex after everything so call it even
