Saw this come up on the rant so I figured I would ask, with the lack of depth we have at the NT position right now, are we looking to bring in two guys who can be Nose Tackles and who are we currently looking at?

Yeah, maybe I'm trippin'. I thought when we offered him that he was a Defensive Tackle. Whatever. Carry on.

Lack of depth at NT? Behind Gilmore we have a true sophomore and true freshman that were top 50 recruits. I'm not sure how much more depth you want

Dare Rosenthal, though I'm sure the plan is to convince him to play OL. We do have Nelson Jenkins committed, who is a really good player.

Typically you want three or 4 tackles just in case injuries and to consistently sub in and out

Huh? Only one nose tackle plays at a time and literally all of our DLineman we are recruiting weigh 300+ pounds. Any of them could play nose tackle.

Shelvin isn't here, yet...still has to qualify which is a question mark right up until August probably.

At worst he will have to sit out this season like valentine. The point is, we have depth at the position. We need ends not tackles

Yep. Especially when a NT isn't on the field every play and Lawrence + Logan can also play the position

It's best when we can have three NTs and that's just to keep them fresh and we actually don't get pushed around and we can get some push up from and make our D Line feared again

You just said we need ends which is where Lawrence and Logan play lol we absolutely need more NTs and 3-4 DEs.
