The most incredible thing is the room for growth. All of those guys at times played well, but there was also a lot of predictable rookie inconsistency and some poor play too.

Growth isn't linear, one or two of these guys probably won't amount to much more than depth guys. But it feels completely plausible that 3-4 also improve, 1-2 maybe very significantly. Obvious candidates for me are Karlaftis, who I think has a lot of room for growth, Skyy Moore who I felt was held back by his understanding rather than athletic limitations, and Chenal, LB is a haaard position to come in and dominate straight away, but he flashed enough to think he could be very, very good at least as a run-stuffing pass-rushing type. At least one of those DBs is going to improve too.

Depending on what they do with Thornhill.....I think Johnson has a shot at that 3rd or 4th safety spot.
