Wood, Minor, and Gentry will be a force on the D line

I also think Smith and Nabushosi will be good as well.

I think my concern on the defensive line is the lack of a true pass rusher. Do we have that edge rusher that can get home? I don't know. I think we've got some young kids that have potential (Scott twins, Justin Lawler, and Michael Epley) but there's some unknown there. Hopefully between Seals, Scott twins, etc. we can get that speed rusher on the edge we need.
Back off Warchild seriously.

If they can get a good push up the middle it will help the edge rusher.

If you say so.

I'm almost more concerned now about our inside linebackers. I really hope Horton can become they guy he looks like on tape. We will need him to be all world.

????? Horton and Yenga may be tied as 2 of the worst guys on tape for missed tackles and being out of position. Tui may not quite have the speed but he probably made more plays per minutes on the field than any of theses guys. Hopefully Ngalo & Rhone will step up as both were hard nosed tackling machines in high school. If those 2 can get out of the strength program at 230 they have the speed and instincts to make an impact.

At this point, MInor is really the only guy (for the upcoming season) with the potential to be a pass rushing difference maker......IF he ever gets his mind right.

What about Nick Reed? If he has a good off-season and improves he could be a load in the interior defensive line.

I was going on Horton's high school tape and his measurements. He didn't show me enough this last season to really know (he only got into a couple of games, right, because he was injured? that's what I recall anyway).
