Also, JT plays the screen very well & gets downfield after recievers on those quick hit slants & hooks. We could improve by 5 sacks this year & see a big difference. QBs will be quicker to get rid of the ball. We might see less of an impact on sacks & more int.s & fumbles.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I definitely expect more picks.
I'm thinking Springs will get his share of picks, but QBs will probably target Rogers more. I'd like to see him get 3 - 5 picks, as well as Landry.
