I listened to the Ryan Burns podcast and he had some interesting thoughts on the defense. His prediction for the starting 11 is:
DE: Esezi Otomewo
DT: OJ Smith
DT : Gary Moore
DE: Carter Coughlin
OLB: Martin
MLB: Barber
OLB: Cashman
CB: Williamson
CB: Thomas
S: Winfield
S: Huff
He said Williamson is our best corner if he can stay healthy. No depth at safety after the starting 2, we will probably see Swenson, CJ Smith or Sapp. I'd still like to see Coughlin at LB on 1st down and running downs with a larger DE so we can hold up against the run.
Burns predicts 6 wins with upside to 7-8. Downside is 3 with injuries in the secondary or DE. He sees the offense as being better than the defense this season.
