    Making the pieces fit on DL

    This is why I laughed at the people who thought a coaching change was going to automatically make the defense good. The cupboard was **** near empty outside of a handful of guys. On top of the 5 linemen, they also added a transfer corner and linebacker and may be adding more. If the coaches...

    If they do, that will make 3 senior DTs who left. These guys signed up to play in Manny’s system (well, not Miller. I think we were just his best offer). They want to play the run on the way to the quarterback. In a way, I get it. That’s the fun side of playing defensive line. But part of being...

    Those guys are unicorns. It's not as easy as just plugging some fat *** in at nose tackle and letting him just take up space. Any center can put a fat guy on his butt if he's not explosive out of his stance and plays with poor leverage. People here thinking Vince Wilforks just grow on trees.

    This. Mesidor would have to have a really incredible year to get on the NFL radar to be an early pick. Tweener players don’t usually get drafted early even if they’re really productive in college.

    Making the pieces fit on DL

    Considering next year we’ll be able to rely more on guys like Nijalik Kelly, Cyrus Moss and Ahmad Moten, we won’t be as desperate to fill spots with portal guys. The reason we’re taking so many guys now is because we don’t have any good upperclassmen and throwing a bunch of first and second year...

    Mesidor and Agude still have three years of eligibility technically. Lichtenstein is a grad transfer so he’s done after this year. I’m not sure on Mountie

    I believe it. I was surprised how huge he looked during the spring game. He should be one of our starters at DT barring some big name transfer.

    The good news is, we’re likely not going to play a bunch of teams who try to power you through the A gap over and over (pause).

    Making the pieces fit on DL

    I’m really curious how they’re going to make this defensive line work. They’re overloaded with big end/small tackle types. We don’t have a real option at 1 tech and our best natural pass rushers are tiny and not suited to be every down players. The good thing is, there’s a lot of depth and...
