Breaking down the defense

[deanpet21]

BASE 3-4 ALIGNMENT

De's Mclain and Allen. Nt is McGee. OLb's are Rk and Smith\Anderson. ILb's are Compton and Foster\Brown. Then the 4 DB's

NICKEL

5Db's 2lb's and 4 down lineman. Im guessing RK, PS, Allen, and Galette. AS far as the 2'bs we know one will be Brown and Compton\Foster. The 5db's should be Bree, Norman, Fuller, Cravens, and Swearinger.

Tremendous depth in the front 7 and Cb. Worried about the depth at Safety.

I don't see how they can't be better. I would go ahead and put Brown ahead of Foster and that right there is a big upgrade. The 2 Alabama rookies will help as well and even though they are unproven the 2 new safeties simply have to be better than what they had last year. I sure wish they would find a long term answer at FS. Swearinger is on his 4th team in 4 years and big hitters always make me nervous with today's rules. No I'd prefer a great cover guy who makes big plays, a player in the style of Ed Reed, over a big hitter.
