There is definitely talent in these position groups. Losing Matthews and Rubin at LB will hurt so we need some of the younger guys to step up there.
Secondary has some talent. They just some coaching up. To many mistakes and blown coverages and breakdowns because of youth.
Overstreet,O’Connor,Dressler,Caughell should pick up that slack.Tristan Wheeler,incoming frosh will likely be in the full time mix.
I think Overstreet could be a big time LB.
Our biggest need is to cut back on big plays our defense gave up last year. DBs have to tackle and cover and D line will need to keep pressure on QBs. We have got Tackle better in secondary. Defense puts guys in a lot of one on one situations in tackling and coverage.
