Iffy, I think his biggest mistake is leaving Herndon (and Griffin earlier on in the year) to essentially play 1 on 1 with the WR they were covering, without much safety help. It cost us immensely in many games, however there were games where the defense came up extremely clutch for us (specifically the chargers playoff game) to which I have to give him some credit.


Question:  Does anyone along the DL develop into a Pro Bowl caliber player?

I think Walker has the potential to do so, I sort of expect Josh Allen to be a better player this year because it's a contract year.. He has the ability to play well, but he often times just dissapears in games and I feel like it's more lack of effort than skill.

Question:  What do you expect out of the LB corps this year?  Which of last year's rookie LBs will make the biggest leap in performance?

I think we have a really nice roster of linebackers, and while I think they'd fit much better in a 4-3 base defense because of WHO we have, I think personally that Chad Muma will end up being the guy we thought Lloyd would be (not to say Lloyd wont be a good player tho)

Sub question:  What do you think of Abdullah so far?  If you are a Gator fan, what are your thoughts on Ventrell Miller?

Don't know much about V Miller, but I do like what I've seen on tape from Abdullah. Too hard to tell at the moment.. but I am at least hopeful he has a shot to be a productive rusher.


Question:  Do you anticipate the team signing a player to strengthen the secondary?

I don't anticipate a signing, but I really wish we would. Theres very few corners in the NFL i'd not take over Tre Herndon, I don't want him on the field barring injury to whoever he's backing up.

Sub question:  Who will be the surprise contributor in the secondary?

If I had to guess, i'd say Antonio Johnson but I do not currently know what their plans are for him. But from what I understand he was excellent in college when playing in the slot position, i'd love it if he took Herndons job. But I'm not sure if they view him as a NB or a Safety.. so, guess time will tell?
