[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 373240, member: 735"] Branch has very good quickness. Just lacks the size to fight off double teams. I think he is yet one more example of a DE pressed into a DT role due to our shortcomings at DT. I was hoping KCH, BG, BA, and one more might be able to shore up the inside spots effectively. But I find myself hoping for the same exact thing again this offseason. We very rarely field a DL that enjoys the luxury of more than one impact player in the front 4 any given season. Daryl Richard and Derrick Morgan. Coleman Rudolph and Marco Coleman. Other than maybe one or 2 more examples I can think of it's typically one impact player plaited with a future impact player that hasn't developed yet. We are getting a good bit better in the depth department. It is still to be determined how much we are improving in the impact player department. Branch imo had the most impact in the front 4 this year. I'm optimistic about BGs development. I think Branch could make an even bigger impact from the edge if allowed to slide outside. That may be a big "if." But the numbers we have there now should at least help keep the guys from getting worn down as much as games progress. I thought we improved a good bit holding the LOS and making some 3rd and 4th and short stops. Where we were most lacking, once again, was pass rush imo. I was hopeful but doubted the ability of our returning ends to get a significant pass rush. I don't see an obvious answer to this concern heading into next year. [/QUOTE]
