Apparently the 2013 dline haul was horribly missed. We signed Bain, Gilmore, Herron, Neal, and Lacouture. Only Lacouture has played meaningful snaps and true freshman have passed the others in week 1.
Baffling.

Yeah, I thought this at first when I saw Godchaux getting the snaps. But now that I've watched him play I think it's similar to the cornerbacks last year. When Rashard and Tre passed Collins, it wasn't because Collins sucked; it was because Rashard and Tre are All-American level talents. Same is true of Godchaux.
It normally takes two years before linemen make a great impact. Those guys haven't completed their second year yet. Already we have one proven commodity (Lacouture), one showing signs of future greatness (Neal), and two getting snaps and holding their own (Bain and Heron). Only Gilmore is a candidate for Mickey Johnson style anonymity. I like the outlook.
