Maybe, improving our pass rush through the draft will make our secondary better, and we can hold tight with who we have for another year. As a unit, they generally do pretty well in man coverage when we blitz. We've just got to start getting to the QB and not leaving out there alone for jump balls.

i pretty much agree with you but notice the part in bold. i think hall will be a fine replacement for springs, if the team decides to cut him to save money. rogers would be our #1, hall #2 and keep smoot as #3, they have that rookie as #4. you are right about the d-line, that needs to be addressed in the off season.
