The Philadelphia Liberty defense is definitely on the young end of things. The secondary is anchored by guys like Richard D'Attoria, Brock Weathers, and Julian McMorris. McMorris had a breakout season as the Defensive Rookie of the Year, putting up some monster stats. This group is going to peak in the next few seasons, and should be a huge pain for offenses to throw against.
In the middle, linebacker is definitely our weakest position group. The IA Rock Hardshaft and now-retiring Gekyume Stokeley are the only players of note here, and it goes without saying they will need to be replaced sooner rather than later. Look for the Liberty to possibly go after some LB FAs, or maybe replace these two with some upcoming draft prospects.
The defensive line is maybe the most promising group for the future of this team. Zach Hall, Mike Franchet, were both huge steals in the S18 draft, and both should be able to give running backs fits for quite some time going forward.
All in all, the defense has struggled this season, but with a great draft and hopefully some FA acquisitions, I think the Philly defense will be able to minimize opposing offenses effectiveness against them. As long as they keep focused, they should be just fine.
