Interesting nugget in the press conference

The biggest ingredient that you missed which makes the Tampa-2 go was Tommy Harris getting the inside penetration (just like Warren Sapp in Tampa).

We never had that in Indy except for Booger and that other DT that I cannot remember his name who had the bad knees. 2 or 3 good years in all the time Dungy was in Indy. Those defenses were improved because of inside pressure. Otherwise, our DTs were fricking 265 pound wonders.

With Hankins/Woods/Anderson/Hunt/Ridgeway at DT and Sheard/Chubb/Basham/free agent at DE, I think we will have a D-Line that can do the job of a Tampa-2.

Simon/Mingo at SSLB with perhaps a free agent/Walker at WSLB leaves our 2nd round pick to be the best ILB we can get; I don't think there are any good MLBs in free agency this year.

I think we can get to a Tampa-2 front-7 setup pretty well in 2018.
