We'll never know what could've been if teams doubled up on Dorsey and left JA singled, or visa-versa..... A suitable replacement for JA is dire need IMO. |

I think we're okay at DT. Boone will play there sometimes, but Dorsey, Edwards and Tank are a decent DT tandem. Throw in Boone and we're alright for a couple more years until either Boone or Edwards breaks down.
It's the edges where we're in trouble. Hali isn't a #1 guy, and we desperately need a #1 guy. We may not even have a #3 guy, and Johnston has a season to show if he's that guy. Turk can fit in there somewhere, I imagine. But who knows. |

JA's a hard act to follow, but if we can make opposing teams believe that someone other than Hali can "get there" we'll be so much more effective Defensively. |

No one seems all that interested in locking that job down thus far. |

Who's the 'Roaf' who's been available since then?

I don't know, a take-no-prisoners pro bowler along the defensive front four can be a game changer. Effects the running game as well as passing game, if you only have "average" guys along the D-line, you gotta have stellar LB's to make up for it. As a crew our linebackers are not stellar.

It's called foresight, that prevents you from trying to find a "Roaf" when "Roaf" retires. Start developing 2-3 seasons prior to the retirements, and don't piss off and send away your younger guns like John Tait. |

The real problem was our failures at identifying Defensive Line talent.
That's what cost this O-Line. We invested far too many picks in the D-Line and gave only low-round commitments to Offensive Line prospects. |
