that may be a sign as to where his nephew is planning on going as well.

Now that our defensive line is about as complete as we are going to get it for next year, what else do we have on the board?

What we need:
1. One quarterback who can take over in two years if needed.
2. Offensive lineman. Do we have anyone on the board at all?
3. Linebackers. If we can grab Petey Smith, which I could see that will help a lot. If we could somehow grab Tana Patrick and Robert Nelson that would be one of the best linebacker classes we have had in a long time.
4. A deep threat. Cameron Kenney would fill this one but Brandon Heavens and and Stallworth could really help with this too. Long shot would be Kendell Kelly, he could give us a good route runner with solid hands.
5. DBs of all flavors. Reggie Taylor will help at corner but we need help with safety now. Darren Myles is a safety that could help us if we can get him. Is there any chance at all of grabbing Kirkpatrick?

If we can sign those we have committed and pick up a few extras on the rest of the road, we will be in great shape.

We’re back and we never really left!

WAR DAMN EAGLE!

….Coleman doing the outside linebacker thing. That’s a position that takes a LOT of repetition to do well. On runs to that side, you end up getting the offense’s best blocker trying to take you out. A step or two out of position, and the runner blows by into the secondary. We saw what happened when we stuck Groves out there. If he wasn’t standing there flatfooted, trying to figure whether the runner would bounce inside or out, he was getting lit up on a throwback screen for a touchdown.

……We’re SHALLOW at DE. Goggins? I wasn’t impressed. We had to move McKenzie over, just to have enough bodies. Coleman was hurt a lot. Ditto Antoine Carter. Ditto Jomarcus Savage. Ditto Raven Gray. It was tough scraping three guys together at DE, for each game. Let’s leave Coleman where he plays best.

…..I’m glad he’s back, though. With both tackle starters gone, Coleman’s experience up front will be critical!

Trust me guys, I’m the biggest realist of the bunch. We have talent and we’re getting some good guys. Our defense was very strong until our offense wore them out by being on the field so much during the course of the season. We’re going to be okay. I’m predicting 8-4 honestly. Remember, we had so many games so close. With our guys together, we’re going to be all right. I truly have a good feeling after all of these hires. That’s what I wanted, good and upcoming assistants. That’s exactly what we got. War Eagle!!
