Different teams, different circumstances. DE was clearly this defense's Achilles heel. So far it's seen JAGs thrown at the position. However, I suspect BB knows this and will fill with a capable body before Week 1.
I'd argue that OLB was the Achilles heal, but that's not really relevant.
Regardless, the best defense in the league starts a JAG at one of their DE spots. So if BB thinks Lewis is stout enough to play on running downs, a rotation of Lewis/Wright/Pryor/Deadrick/Brace (?) isn't bad.
The issue last year was that they had no one at that spot who could stop the run worth a damn.
