I enjoyed watching out LB's, I am very happy knowing they will be here for a long time and will only get better. Dixon is an absolute monster who refuses to go down. I hope he develops into a full time back. He would be at the head of a power running game. We can only hope
The Bad, no pressure.....NONE. Suggs is old and it isn't fair to expect him to be the main guy going for pressure. Same for Doom. Judon seemed to penetrate but they did not play him enough in my opinion. I need to see what Carl Davis when healthy is going to be able to do (when we first drafted him he seemed to be forcing his way into the backfield like some sort of man child) need to see that because Williams may not be here considering Timmy J is younger and may be asked to fill that spot (another guy who kind of trailed off considering the sacks he had at the beginning of the year) and possibly Pierce.
The Ugly, Jay Ajayi....I know I mentioned before that I like Dixon a lot. However during the draft a couple years ago we had many chances to draft Jay and we did not...He was originally going to be a 3rd round pick but he had a concern due to his knee.....As this game has taught us, a great RB can change the game and make plays happen for the QB by forcing the defense to come closer....feeding Jay would have helped Flacco tremendously in a year that both he and the WR's were inconsistent.
Super Ugly, we rely too much on Jimmy Smith. We need to find him some help because he seems to be missing in action a lot during the end of the year. It sucks because he's clearly the best player we have on D. T-Young is great but we need another DB to help. It was an accident of an injury but once again it's just too much sometimes. Could we consider moving him towards the back of the field? It seems a lot of you do not like Webb too much, however I did. Could you see Jimmy next to Weddle? ehh...
on to the draft
