we all the know that, in our system, the front 4 must be able to apply consistent pressure. we simply must improve in that department. immediately. lack of pressure was the single biggest factor in our humiliation at new england this past year.

i recall one of the commentators saying in the 4th quarter, "look at tom brady on the sideline... he's not even sweating!"

pass rushers and receivers (which we are also looking for) generally take a few years to get comfortable to the point where they can truly be impactful. i do not believe we should (or will) try and chance both of these positions in the draft.

a trade is in the works.... it MUST be.
