Is the entire defensive line unit (edges+interior) going to be a strength on this team next year? We are absolutely stacked on the edge, and will have more talent in the interior than we had this year. We had a pretty serviceable interior line rotation considering the talent this year so I think that could be a big improvement as well.

I’m probably just sunshine pumping, but I feel like the whole team is going to be strong next year. I think we are a solid safety and OT transfer away from being serious playoff contenders.

It starts in the trenches and it looks like BK is loading up for bear.

I don’t think it’s sunshine pumping actually….. I think it’s pretty accurate. I actually think BK is doing what he said he was going to do and be aggressive in the portal this year. I also agree with the statement that we need a safety and an OT.

The biggest thing is preparation though. All of this activity is great, and it seems to be a solid re-tool/boosting of the roster to go along with a strong freshman class coming in. BUT If BK doesn’t figure out how to better prepare for the opener (as well as big games), it’s all for not

We lost 3 ends/edge rushers and replaced them with 3 transfers, only time will tell if those guys end up better than who they replaced. At tackle, they will definitely be improved, as they for the most part all come back. Big Dom and Tank to go with Jack and PP sounds like a stud starting lineup.

Hopefully there's enough depth that we don't shy away from contact in the preseason over fear of injuries. It would be good if we were ready to tackle in game one.

O line and secondary still a big question mark

Just at safety. The corner room is loaded and by far the best cb room in the BK era talent wise on paper

I hate playing the on paper game. Show me on the field before I start thinking somebody is really good or not
