I think that's exactly what they're saying due to how high they were picked.
And it scares me. The idea that the middle of our defense (the weakest link) will be exposed most of the day scares the hell out of me.
Perhaps even more than drafting a TE who can't block to pair with a QB who loves to take sacks...
