When opportunity presented itself to our secondary (J. Reeves vs Vikings) they made plays . . .I think the front 7 is more crucial to a defense than a secondary, I think the front 7 makes the secondary. Would Ed Reed or Troy Polamalu be as dominant without the pressure up front? The short answer is no. Why wouldn't we push to make our DLine the best on the planet, we already have a couple of pieces (granted Amobe is a work in progress) that can lead our secondary to become average, at the very least, and exceptional if we play our cards right. This is why I advocate a DLine selection, hopefully, Raji, if not, then a speed rusher like Maybin, Brown, or Orakpo . . .if available.
