The good news for me is that fact that if we decide to NOT go with DT, Fletcher is far more capable of holding down the middle than Marshall.

That's true. Fletcher has a better nose for the ball. And Fletcher has the brain to get guys lined up kind of like Pierce used to do. So Fletcher might have a big impact against the run, even with our current personnel.

But even given that, we're still better off with a serious run stuffer along the line. It would allow the defense a lot more flexibility. If we stick with Golston, we pretty much need someone to have his back at all times. Put a serious run stuffer in his place, now all of a sudden we can move Fletcher around a bit more.
