Top 5 teams in college football always seem to have great depth on the offensive line and defensive line. I like what I'm seeing and reading from what we got coming down the line on offensive line. Defensive line is a little concerning. We lost few guys early like Big V and McMullin who we thought would be there this year. But looking at depth chart makes you wonder how deep they will run.
DT- should be better in 17' season, just to young this year. Teams will be able to run ball better on us this year vs last year hopefully will be a slim margin.
Maurice- will start, hopefully will hold up for entire season.
K.Davis- could be very good by next year
C.Davis- could be very good by next year
Newell- hopefully will provide depth this year
Stoltenberg- if he can stay healthy I think he's ready to go.

DE- Just no depth at all?
King- so far a non-factor
Nattier- same as King
Neal- hopefully will provide depth
A.Davis- will be brought in on pass rushing downs
Dzuris- a serviceable player
Freedom- Should be good this year.

Problem is we need like 4 Freedoms and we only have one. The new freshmen will need to RS. I noticed a lot other BIG teams loading up on DE's. I'm hoping coach Parrella brings in a strong Defensive line class to build on for the near future. I feel the defensive line may be the teams weak spot this year. Not the starters but the depth.
