I like the Fletcher addition and the Holdman subtraction. McIntosh should get some time and if Washington is healthy he'll still be a stud (he's only 28 I think).

As for the line, Carter did seem to get comfortable at the end of the year. If Griffin can stay healthy, our tackle rotation is at least decent, since Golston did show some signs. I still want to see us get another big tackle, just to put in the rotation. A pass rushing defensive end, well that will have to wait another year...

I really think by having Fletcher teams shouldn't be able to just run right at Carter so much. I think Pierce did a much better job of getting us into position, we didn't give up nearly so many big plays when AP was running things and I think a lot of that is just being in the wrong defense initially.

Secondary goes from being a weakness to a strength, our back seven should be a lot more active, get more sacks, and give up fewer explosive plays.
