I think he will get about the same number of snaps as any DT. Whether he is actually a starter, who knows. that doesn't matter IMO

Like Patrick Peterson as freshman, it will depend on how necessary he makes himself to the team.

I don't follow recruiting and high school players...BUT...today I spent the day with a coach who Coached Anthony Johnson at one of the All-Star games...and he said he is a MAN. He said he will be playing a lot. He spoke very highly of Anthony Johnson.

This coached played at USC and a few years in the NFL and he was really impressed with AJ.

Probably not but he'll rotate. This is where I'm concerned most about our team. I think we're going to have growing pains with the middle of the defense(DT/MLB). I'm not sold on Downs, Brockers, Johnson being able to seal it all up yet. Potential but inexperienced. Downs is injury prone too.

Downs is being overlooked. Sure, he's undersized. But so was Nevis and to an extent, Dorsey. Downs is a productive player in this scheme and will be very good for us next year, particularly on pass rushing situations.

I'm excited about our depth and youth along the front because a lot of those guys are still experienced.

He will get hi share of rotations. It's up to him if he starts by November or not. But if he does start I think he will get the same amount of reps as if he didn't start. If that's the case it doesn't really matter.

5 guy rotation. There will be a diff between amonut of reps bewtween 1&5, but prob no diff between 2-4.

Im not worried. These guys have spent time under chavis. They will be ready to play. Brockers is a beast.

Miles will never start the more talented player over the upperclassmen.

All evidence to the contrary is irrelevant. . .or the exception to the rule.
