We should sign the entire 1897 Penn defense.
“Back when teams played real defense!”Don't disrespect Yale 1894. They went 16-0 and allowed only 13 points in 16 games, averaging 30.3 ppg.

The Patriots need a 0/1-tech that can swallow up double teams,funnel runs to the outside, and keep the opposing guards from getting to the second level and on top of our LBs. I like Wilkins, but as others have mentioned, he's a 3-tech ideally. Think Brown with possibly more upside. That role is also needed, but not nearly as much as the Patriots need a more traditional NT.
I'd like to pick up a veteran to do that. Is there a guy like Ted Washington or Alan Branch out there? Then, a guy like Wilkins or Simmons with our first. Trade up for the right guy. Like we did with Hightower and Chandler Jones in 2012. Could have traded up slightly and gotten Derwin James this past draft.
I know our DL is weak. But, a safety who can get people on the ground might be even a bigger help to our run defense. Some of the big plays we gave up seemed to take a long time to develop and have to think a safety helps there. Maybe, a younger vet there too.
We need a run stuffer. Adam Butler is a decent pass rusher as a backup DT.Michael Pierce is the one I'm most interested in. A bit on the older side and only an RFA, but he's an elite run stuffer.
Thats a pretty incredible picture.Don't disrespect Yale 1894. They went 16-0 and allowed only 13 points in 16 games, averaging 30.3 ppg.
