They brought back 40% more production on that side of that ball, which is why people think they’ll be good. But bringing back 80% of production that was average AF does equal a great defense.


They also brought back Derwin James, who might be the best defensive player in the country.

That's the best opposing defense I've seen in person since 2011 LSU. It doesn't excuse our mishaps, but that is an incredible defense loaded with NFL players at all levels.

Lets see how the season plays out.

I bet they're not top 5 end of the year.

Scoring defense ranks since Charles Kelly has been there:

2014: 50th (Pruitt had them #1 the prior year)
2015: 9th
2016: 44th


I just don't think he's that great of a DC. He had most of the same players last year and it was a very average squad.
