I think Galette will have the pass rushing and run defending down pretty good. It's gonna be when he is inevitably tasked with pass coverage that I'm gonna be holding my breath.

I understand that worry, but how often will he actually cover someone man to man? Plus, go and look at all of the top sack guys that are 3-4 OLB's and tell me how many of those guys are good in pass defense. Ware, Aldon Smith, Cameron Wake, Kruger, Suggs, Tamba Hali, Justin Houston. I wouldn't consider any of these guys good pass defenders. They are out there for one reason.

Putting pressure on the qb is the most important part of playing defense these days. If Junior can do that like he has been, with more playing time, I think I can overlook him not being good in pass coverage. He will be dropping back into zone's probably.
