Careful it will spill on the carpet and then we'll get ants!

I'm with bobag. The talent is there to have a decent defense. If we were looking at a lot of problems caused by physical limitations (like we know Dustin Harris didn't get any bigger), then there would be little room for hope.
But most of the problems we had last year had little to do with athleticism and more to do with players not knowing where to be. Those problems can be corrected in the off season with film and time with coaches.
Even guys who played a lot last year aren't known quantities. Some got bigger, some got faster, and hopefully they all got more knowledge of the system. It also sounds like more of them are playing their natural positions rather than just filling holes. Some may also have regressed; we'll just have to wait and see.
Oh yeah, it's also an even numbered year which have been producing surprisingly effective defenses lately. We can't overlook the predictive power of historical trends!
tl,dr: Maybe they improved, maybe not, but I'm not going to concede that we will have another shitty defense until I see it.
