Don’t forget rakestraw can come back soon. I hope he can stay healthy.

That was a great Dan Campbell interview.

Rake and Moseley can hold that spot down. The secondary isn’t what worries me.
A porous LB corps (Jack Campbell aside) was the weakness Sunday. Nowaske should be back this week, which helps. JRM and Anzalone eventually, but likely not until playoffs, maybe Vikings at best. The various adds (Alexander, Turner, Long, Adams, Niemann) get another week of practice with the first string to integrate into the defense.
Need BroMart to step into Alim’s spot. I think he can be fine against the run, but he doesn’t have that pass rush than Alim brought. Reader and BroMart in the middle is going to be tough to run on, though.

Levi is going to have to step up in place of McNeil. Bromart will still back up reader.

Where the F is iffy.

Hopefully, but Levi was barely noticeable last week.
Having both at full speed would be great, since they don’t play Reader more than about 40-50% of snaps anyway, depending on matchup. Rotate them and O’Connor to keep them fresh.

That’s why I’m holding out hope that Levi has another level he can reach this season.
