That is what I am hoping for.

I hope that the defensive talent it deep enough that we can, with our six picks in the first four rounds, get 4 or 5 guys that become starters or quality depth guys in the next 2-3 years.

Sort of like we drafted 3 offensive linemen in 2016 that might end up being starts in 2017.

2 drafts like that in 2017 and 2018 along with solid free agent signings will get our defense into the top half of the league.

And with our offense, that is really all we need in the short term.
