B/R ranking of best 4-3 DEs for 2015.

[MHS831]

I am guessing that (considering there are about 17 4-3 teams, the following:

Johnson 13

Ealy 12

Addison 8

Delaire 24

Not even sure about the criteria.

 

 

[MHS831]

I would say that Ealy is poised to make a dramatic improvement, and a healthy Johnson in a limited role is probably going to improve.  Delaire should too. 

Our DEs did not dominate in 2015.  Encouraging.

You have to also imagine our DE #s are greatly aided by our stellar DT play.  Meaning this group may not even be as good as these rankings illustrate.  I think this is a position we need to invest a draft pick or two in.  Pulling in J. Allen and Delaire were desperation moves last year. 

 

This and CB are the two positions on the team I hope we focus on early during the draft.
