Also, some here have said that you only need a solid 2-deep on the line with 2 guys that can play third string. But interior o and d linemen get hurt more than anyone. I don’t buy into the theory that if you are on your three deep by November you’re in trouble. That’s why you recruit depth and have some sophomore/juniors readst to go if the need arrives. I like 16.
