Quote:This is true...but you also need to incude the FA signings for defense to fairly argue this point.

 

And he's only done it for one year...this year with Odrick and House, with Julius as the "big" signing. Fact is, the attention to this team has been on offense...not defense. DC managed to hit on some lower round defensive picks with Telvin and Colvin. But we need bonafide talent on this defense...and we simply don't have it. 

 

Everyone likes to harp on Gus for this defense, but you guys realize:

 

Mariota is a #2 pick

DBG is a 2nd rounder (would have been 1st if not for character concerns)

Lewan 11th overall

Warmack 10th overall

Wright 20th overall

 

 

Now compare that to our defense and what we've invested in it.

 

That offense is young...but it has talent. Not too different from ours.
