The gradual decline of a defense built like ours is inevitable anyway. I'm just really hoping that we can get some pass rushers so we can take advantage of having Haynesworth's best years here in our defense. He's not going to get any better than he is right now, so his biggest impact to our defense is going to come this year. If we're not a top five defense this year, we're in lots of trouble (thanks, DHall contract!).

Hear u on the pass rush but I hope we can manufacture more of it w/ an upgrade at OLB and some creativity within our current players. Chris Wilson should get more opps coming off RDE for one thing. A SLB who can get after the passer would then yield a three prong attack then. I like your thinking on a 4-3, 3-4 tweener who can attack as a pass rusher.
