This it will be Davis, he is at least huge and should be able to defend the run. Then Dayo or Lewis or both in obvious passing downs. -

Dayo is around the same size as Buckner. -
I don't think you're necessarily wrong, I just have an unconventional belief about building from the inside out. Everyone focuses on tackle play, which is important, but I think the interior of the OL is more important. You can help pass protection with scheme and QB play, and it's easier to help on the outside than it is to double a great DT. You can't run the ball if you're not good inside. For these reasons, I think OL play should be built from the inside out. And for similar reasons, I value good DT play more than most people. That said, you can't be deficient at positions where good teams are getting playmaking -- Edge, CB, WR, etc. I also disagree here. The problem isn't the scheme, in the fundamental sense. It's the rigidity with which the scheme is employed. Everyone plays a ton of zone, that's the new NFL. The Jets only blitz slightly more than the Colts (granted, their personnel is better across the board). The problem is that we're passive and predictable, and while this same scheme can be played more aggression and disguise, Bradley won't/can't do it. And I don't think that's because Ballard is micromanaging his gameplans. There are some limitations to this scheme, and I agree that any DC that comes in with Ballard as GM will be running a similar defense, so the limitations will probably persist. But I don't agree that this scheme itself requires the uninventive passiveness and rigidity that we deal with now.

Davis about to become the starter until then. Don’t suggest Lewis or Dayo. We tried that and they’re too light to play in the middle. Lewis prime example and once we played him at DE against Dallas for the first time he had 3 sacks that game and we shut them out. Don’t even say “they can play on 3rd downs” No they can’t because we suck on anything 3rd and 10+ yards. Just gotta rotate and roll with what we have. It’s going to be rough

Anyone else concerned about the lack of effort from Pittman. He’s letting small DBs out muscle and out jump him. He’s also not coming back to the ball on many of his routes.
