Bold Predictions III: Defense

I'm going to pass on breaking this down by position group and we're going to lump the defense together as a whole - what are your predictions on how Scwartz's new group will fare? Here are my thoughts:

  • The defense generates 44 sacks - a solid number, but nothing like the aggressive, QB pressuring defense we saw last year.
  • Gilmore is okay - some ups and some downs, he picks 2 or 3 balls and leaves us having the same conversations we had about Leodis McKelvin (minus the fumbles).
  • Aaron Williams makes the pro bowl
  • Kyle Williams and Marcell Dareus are completely marginalized in this defense - they play well though, but their stats suck
  • Mario sacks the QB 14 times
  • Nickell Robey plays like a stud, gets on a solid HGH regiment, grows 5 inches, and starts on the outside for us for 10 more years
  • Bradham has a real breakout season and becomes the 3 down LB we're looking for in Kiko's absence.
  • The Bills rank in 10th in adjusted efficiency as a defensive unit.
