Trying to paint a clearer image of what our defense will look like next season. What do you think about the accuracy/potency of this hypothetical rotation?

If we add Butler and resign Mack, our defensive roster could look roughly like this...

LDE: Jordan, Smith
DT: Bunkley, DRAFT (Williams?)
RDE: Hicks, Johnson
LOLB: DRAFT (Mingo?), Galette
LILB: Hawthorne, Vilma
RILB: Lofton, Chamberlain?
ROLB: Wilson/Butler, Butler/Wilson
LCB: Lewis, Robinson, Mack
RCB: Greer, DRAFT (Mathieu?), White
FS: Jenkins, AQ
SS: Harper, Bush
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(*Other two draft picks invested on offensive side of the ball: RT/LT, RT/LT or backup TE/QB)
 
That prototype looks good, but let's wait until after free agency to get a better look at one of these. Just my opinion.
 
I doubt mingo will be there or ansah or jordan or jones. I think we will have to choose between guys like Xavier Rhodes Vacarro and Tavon Austin and won't have an option to trade down

I think I'd rather Jenkins at CB and Matthieu as a FS prospect. Great ball hawking skills, good speed, aggressive.

I would love Austin in that situation. Xavier wouldn't be a bad pick there either, but I see Tampa taking him.

I like this roster a LOT, but I'm not sure we can really assume that the Saints are interested in Mathieu, persay... Other than that, I think it's a very reasonable guess as to where a lot of our current and prospective guys would slot into this new 3-4.

Here's to hoping we can grab Butler and a premier pass rushing OLB in the first round of the draft!
 
I want tez wilson on the inside instead of hawthorne, he wll give us some much needed athleticism
 
we need new starters at

FS
LOLB, mingo?
ROLB, wilson is not a starter....
LILB, not sold on hawthorne at all....
 
Imagine having Mingo (6'4, 241, 4.58) coming off one edge, and Wilson (6'4, 250, 4.49) coming of the other edge.
