[QUOTE="Ogsponge, post: 564604, member: 9358"] Matthews is a great pick Daniels - lets see more than one year before we crown him a good pick Heyward - after injury, lets see more than one year before we crown him a good pick Raji? - Whether it is scheme, dom, or raji himself, he has not been that great except for the first year or two. Hyde - Again, lets see more than one year before he is crowned a good pick Jones - please, he is a horrible linebacker and should not be starting so to answer your question, not many because they are not good enough, just like jones is not good enough. Okay so with that said, there is a reason why I said is this the year it all comes together. If all those players play up to their past performance then they will be looking like good, possibly great picks but you simply cannot say that. Look, I am not all doom and gloom, I appreciate everything Ted has done, but if we want to get back to the Superbowl, he has to get some better, consistent defensive talent on the field. There are a lot of big "ifs" going into this season that could make him look like a freaking genius once again but we won't know for a year. Here are the if: if Daniels can continue to improve if Heyward can bounce back to his rookie form if Raji can bounce back to his first two years form if Hyde can step in an continue to improve if Jones and Hawk can get the job done on the inside if Burnett can play better than last year if Neal, can continue to improve if jones can contribute if Perry can contribute if Matthews can stay healthy if Peppers can still play at a high level do you see what I am getting at? Everything on defense as of right now is nothing but ifs, I would take Matthews off that list I guess because we know if he is healthy, he is a beast. There are very few known quantities on the defense going into this season, compared to having Rodgers, Nelson, Cobb, lacy, starks who are pretty much guaranteed to contribute greatly barring injury. Anyway I am just rambling now. so that is all for now. [/QUOTE]
