Re: Anthony Montgomery
It's always been my position that DE was a greater need than DT. We had this discussion ad nauseum before the draft. With Griffin, Golston, Montgomery and Salavea, we should get a decent years worth of play. If they are all healthy, it would be a bonus.
By contrast, we will be in trouble at DE if Carter doesn't continue his late season play from last year. Everybody else is average and old. I still think they should at least think about playing Wynn on first down. Of course, with an upgrade out outside LB over Holdman, Carter may be adequate against the run.
Also, they intend, I think to funnel the offensive pressure away from the middle (LBers) to the outside (CBs) by playing more Cover 1 with Landry up near the line of scrimmage. This may allow Carter's athleticism to display itself as he will not have to be as disciplined in his approach. He will have an extra defender on early downs.
