People overlook Brandon Spikes. He was having a solid rookie year. If we get an OLB who can put some pressure on the QB then I would be comfortable in saying we have a more than solid LB corp. It also seems to me that Wilfork is capable of making the scrub DEs around him look pretty good.
That being said, If we add a good DE and OLB in FA or the Draft and Warren and Bodden come back strong we would have, for the first time since 05/06 (maybe 07) a good defense. These are big ifs, but imagine the following lineup on the field healthy and playing to potential
Warren - Wilfork - (Cameron Jordan?)
Cunningham - Mayo - Spikes - (Kerrigan...I can dream)
McCourty - Chung - Meriweather - Bodden
Obviously the () are hypothetical (unlikely hypotheticals haha) but you get the picture. If the defensive unit stays on the field and grows together over the season, I could see it being a surprise top 10 squad
There we go nice and fixed thats how i want the draft to pan out... doesn't that look alot better?
