Continuity at minimum, seems like a solid/steady player

Yep, solid player. And if they don't bring back Niles Paul, I could see him becoming the new Special Teams Cptn.

Everett definitely showed improvement in 2017. I like seeing players on defense that don't shy away from contact and are initiators of ‘violence' on the field.

In past years our defense was soft and hopefully that continues to change in 2018.
