You need penetration up front FIRST. We didn't have that, and Golston, who everybody just raves about is part of the line that got us a #27 ranking against the run last year.

I feel where u are coming from here. However, I could flip the question right around and ask what will happen when teams begin to throw on us? Point is, both parts of our defense were equally bad.
I know football is won in the trenches, but one can't always draft out of need in the first round. It helps to draft for need, but it doesnt always pan out. Just like a DE/DT can help out on both fronts, so can a FS. Either one of our picks could help or hurt us next year. I just choose to go with the more effecient player - Laron Landry.
But when we do draft a d lineman, I hope it is Amobi Okoye. I wouldnt be mad with that. We still need a FS tho.
I hope the skins work some magic out, cuz we have a lot of holes to plug with only one cog to fill it in the first round/day of the draft.
