Yep. I said as much earlier this morning. If the 2019 defense is going to take big steps forward, the 2018 draft class is going to have to be a big part of it.

I can definitely see where it is possible if not probable that we will see that happen.
Speaks had a better 1st year than Ford did in his 2cd. Not saying Speaks could be the pass rusher that Ford can be, but Speaks will be better against the run.
Nnadi appears to have his spot at the NT/DT spot locked down. If he continues to improve he will an impact. He just can't be jumping offsides. IIRC he had a little problem with that last season or he would have played more earlier.
DOD showed some good flashes last season in limited time. If he is the starting WLB like most expect he could/should definitely part a big part.
If Lucas or Watts stay healthy they showed enough to believe that they would be an improvement over last season.
