So we have Jordan/Bunkley/Hicks on the front line - not bad
We have ?/Lofton/Hawthorne/Wilson - a little weak on the outside (use #15 pick)
We have Greer/Robinson/Harper/Jenkins - even if you don't like Harper, he will be a stud in the new scheme (run stopper/blitzer)

If we can pick up some OLB in free agency or the draft, I could see this defense easily jumping into the middle of the pack next year.

Junior is a 260 pound speed pass rushing DE. He is exactly the kind of guy everyone tries to convert to 3-4 OLB when these guys come out of college. He is the best pass rusher on the team and he has more potential as a pass rusher in the new defense than Wilson in my opinion. It still baffles me that people continue to overlook him and assume he needs to be upgraded.

And let's count the OP as another person misinformed on Bunkley. I would say Hicks is more like a Richard Seymour type than Ngata. Ngata is like 360 pounds and isn't the type of pass rusher Hicks could potentially be from that spot.
