it doesn't make my concerns vanish but they do look much better physically than they did as freshman....anyone who follows recruiting knows that these guys are very talented.

the biggest concerns coming out of high school:

bain - too much baby fat, which is now gone
gilmore - needed to put on good weight, which he has done
godchaux - was a tweener but now has added a lot of bulk and is a clear cut monster DT
herron - needs to drop baby fat, he has done so but needs to cut more
thomas - a little slow and overweight, which from everything i am hearing, he is solid muscle now

i want to see it with my own 2 eyes but these guys have put in the work to be great

If they are physically ready for snaps that's a huge part of the battle to me because the biggest weakness last year was how many snaps the front line had to play.

I'm hoping the defense is able to get back to a rotation of DL nearing the dozen mark.

Ego and Freak may not have met expectations last year, but they certainly weren't helped at all by the amount of time they had to spend on the field.
