Depends on your definition of afford. If we lose Brockers,Montgomery, and Randle, we don't win an SEC Championship next year. Book it and flame on.

it will hurt, but I think we could swing it. Mett is really gonna help out our WRs, we got ODB, Landry, Clement, Boone, Wright coming back to catch passes. None of them are RR, but Bama aint got no RR this year and they are pretty competitive. Losing Brockers and Sam will hurt, but if Rasco develops more and Freak develops, you are still talking about one of the deepest DL in the nation, plus our LB play will be improved.

Even if we lose both of them, we gain Maclin off the redshirt, as well as Rasco as an every-down contributor. We're also going to return Freak, Downs, Logan, & also Mickey Johnson. That's 3 kids with starting experience & one redshirt whose perhaps the biggest sleeper in his recruiting class.

Montgomery is a great player, but stop and think about this, guys: We moved a 5-Star Defensive Tackle to the Offensive Line this past Spring in Chris Davenport, and we still didn't have enough reps to go around on the interior of our Defensive Line.

At the Defensive End spot, Mingo led us in sacks most of the year as a non-starter.

We will be very, very okay on the DL. We may not be as talented, but we may be deeper. People just don't realize it.
