re: Questions about d-line

Downs freshman season had most of us thinking greatness was ahead for him. His size and injuries killed that.

That was a great group in '09. Brockers, Monty and Mingo are sure 1st rounders. I personally think Logan will be if he stays all 4 years and maybe even if not. He was special in those 2 Bama games and at times in others. He was the best DL on the field in New Orleans for either team imo.

I think we take at least 6 DL in this class and maybe 7.

DE
Beckwith-I don't care if they say LB all day long, the kid will play DE.
Williams-he's the stud
Prevot-If we land him and Williams, wow
Not sure we'll land all 3 but we would take all 3 right now

DT
Lacouture-I think he will be ours sooner than later
Lawson- he'll compete with Lacouture for 1st on the board
Manning-long fight but we'll be in it
Demarcus Walker-UF will likely get him but we'll probably get a visit
Gilmore-we've got a better shot than I would've admitted a couple of weeks ago.
Herron-something about this kid intrigues me. Kind of my sleeper guy

I think 2 are in the bag and if 2 of the others wanted in I doubt we'd turn them away. Our biggest problem will be convincing them all to come in together but with how we rotate it shouldn't be too hard.

This one could rival '09 and probably be better on paper.
