Do you say that because of size? Or?this is going to be a disaster...
Yeah and filling so many spots with new starters in the first year of a new system will be tough.Do you say that because of size? Or?

I think there’s still time for players like our DE’s, LB’s and DL to add more quality weight. But yeah I’m very worried about linebacker and the line...again.Yeah and filling so many spots with new starters in the first year of a new system will be tough.
Our linebacker ceiling’s as high as it’s been in a decade. We just need these guys to hit the gym like wolves
Well, we have our young core now recruited from solid HS pedigrees with the intangibles past LB’s lacked. So lets see if we can get them ACC sized and up to speed quickly enough.They really need to develop these guys and stop this endless loop of tranfers and JC's. Now we will see how well they recruited and develop HS LB's.
Maybe another Ron ThompsonI believe in the game he was dismissed from during the play he hit the quarterback, Mr. Tuazama displayed what to my untrained eye was extraordinary closing speed. I cannot wait to see what he does this year. With a little more girth, the sky is the limit.

Yes exactly. The OLB's are up on the LOS a lot. They have to be able to take on TE's and be physical enough against pulling guards on counter and power plays. Those two will get serious looks at those spots. Look for a guy like Linton to come in on 3 downs pass play situations. ASU has a guy name Tyler Johnson. I can see Linton in that role.Was looking at the ASU roster. They have a couple of linebackers who are almost as big as our DE's last year. Our LB's don't necessarily have to be as big as them, but are going to have to put on some weight. In terms of size, bet we're looking for more 3-4 Defense sized DE's and LB's. Can see Richards or Cantin-Arku starting at one of the LB spots to give us a physical presence there.
Never seen a wolf in a gym. Just saying.Our linebacker ceiling’s as high as it’s been in a decade. We just need these guys to hit the gym like wolves
It could very well be this. I think Trill is perfect for S/LB position I just dont know how valuable he is as a cover corner. I dont know what other CB's with step up. I hope Stritz is ready. He has experience in ACC games and I like that about him.2020 Defense
