I am a little concerned with our defense next year but mainly the DT position, Wes Brown and Dan Williams are warriors. Montori has the talent but lacks consistency and the other DT position will be Walls or Brown if he gets in, its a huge question mark... The run defense often is only as good as your DT's and if we stink up front it could have trickle down effect. What do you guys think of our DT depth and the rest of the defense?

Our defense maybe better or worse next year depending on how certain player develop in the offseason. I think we will probably remain about the same, IMO, but hopefully stopping the run better.

Great avatar change! I think Willis will go a LONG way towards stability in the interior of the line. Sykes should be solid, Walls looks to be good, if Brown gets in he will be a contributor. So much depends on spring ball, we will know alot about our depth chart after then.

yeaa keeping John Brown and Harris could be big in this class because of the immediate contribution they can make... its rare for a high school DT to make an immediate impact at that position but if we can just be average I love our depth at DE

I agree about the high school DTs but Willis is a very physically developed ballplayer. Don't sleep on him just yet.

Walls and Hughes will be big up front. They're only sophomores. And is Arthur Jeffrey still on D guys? If so he could provide some depth. We'll be okay on the DL. Got a feeling we'll be pretty good up front. I think we'll be better at LB too. Also the secondary will be a strength even without EB. I expect us to take a big leap on defense. It will be the players' second year in the system so I think it will be a lot easier for them to just go out and make plays. Martin and Walker will be bookends up front with Bohannon providing depth all over the line.

Dont forget about Pat harris and Brandon Willis and Rae Sykes (who was tough at some points of practice). Willis is 50/50 on playing Tackle. Our DE's next year are gonna be stacked up! Ben Martin, Gerald Williams, Chris Walker, Corey Miller, Jacques Smith, JC copeland.

Im just a wee bit more concerned with the O line.
