Defensive Interior

A lot of people had mixed opinions on Tyson Jackson signing a big time contract.  He may not be a great pass rusher, but he is one of the best run stoppers in the league at that position.  Paul Soliai is absolutely vital when using more 3-4 looks, he can stop the run as good as anybody and can eat up blocks allowing linebackers to get after the passer.  With Corey Peters and Jonathan Babineaux resigning, the defensive interior can’t improve much here on out considering the ability to stop the run should have increased drastically.  Atlanta still needs a pass rusher though.
