Not trashing the Patriots, my team the Falcons are in the same exact boat, other than getting a fresh every down bruiser RB, still hoping they get MJD from Jax, our offense is tight enough. But we have got to get another 1 or at least a 2 in the LB department and we need to get someone who can get constant pressure up the middle, depending on Abraham to do everything is not working. So far unless we bring up our LB's the most we can do is contain.
A little better depth in the CB department would be nice, we cant go a season without losing our star CB and having our 2 and 3 injured part of the season....
Just be glad this draft looks like a Defensive smorgesboard.....

Actually, Pats are very young& deep in the front seven.... they'll be a force there as soon as they can get a #1 cover guy and a strong safety. Talib should have been that guy in recent weeks, just couldn't stay on the field
