It’s not revolutionary.
Many coaches have stated that an elite defense must be strong in the middle: with productive playmakers at interior defensive line, inside linebacker and free safety. We can check one of those boxes off with the mighty Beard (at least for the time being). Now, with the addition of Denzel Perryman in the 2nd round of the draft, have the Bolts added another piece to that puzzle?
As a Miami Hurricane, Perryman was rolling ball o’ butcher knives in the middle. In 2014, he recorded 110 tackles with 9.5 tackles for a loss, three forced fumbles, five passes batted and an interception.
