    I would love him and ZTF to really be back to their 2020 level this year. They were easily the top 2 players in the front 7 during the shortened 2020 season.

    Ulo could make the biggest difference relative to what he replaces. I'm of the opinion that the inside backers hurt the defense almost as bad as the secondary most of the time, and sometimes worse such as the UCLA and Oregon games.

    I expected more from Bright and Moll flashed but didn't play all that much. Tuputala was always behind Ulofoshio, so now that he's healthy, I expect him to be ILB1. Goforth will be the most interesting story this offseason and whether he jumps Tuputala or he's second string with Bruener

    I’m a little short ZTF. He was all world in 2020, but that was only a 4 game season. Injured 2021. Average in 2022 coming back from the injury. All the hype was based on 2020 and that was a super small sample under bizarre circumstances. I hope I’m wrong.

    He was better than average last year. Short on sacks but a lot of pressures.

    Bright sucked, but not sure that's entirely his fault alone. A lot of the defensive issues seem to have come from the players not always understanding the new scheme. There were a lot of plays where the DAWGS were still scrambling to get in position when the ball snapped

    I want to be wrong. I also felt that he lost contain more than I remembered.

    Another year in the D and an improved secondary should help.
