to maximum defensive doog...
With Vea coming back, thinking about the next mutation of death row has me fully torqued.
Vea/Gaines/Johnson (wrecked BAMA and looks like he's taken a leap)/Benning/Levi
Azeem/Keshawn/Tevis/Eifler
Rapp/Murphy/Love
It still looks like we have serious talent on that side and some people ready to make Psalm a distant fucking memory. The secondary won't be lights out from the get go, but if Rapp's development is any indication, could be really fucking good by the end of the season. They have the athletes without a doubt. My early pick is that Love takes King's spot as swagmaster and is dick slapping receivers by the BYE.
None of this will matter if Smith doesn't set himself on fire, but we could still pop off and win 11, even in that nightmare scenario. Calling my doctor in 4 hours...

I think we? Will blitz more early next year to help the secondary a bit. Our front 7 is going to be improved and our secondary will definitely drop off but I don't think it will be as bad as people think.

Vea coming back is the key. We are thinnest at DT. A key in Spring will be McCoy's development. If he becomes better than Turpin, we've got an inside rotation. DBs will be fine. Rapp and JoJo at the Safeties with Love, Murphy, Joyner and Miller competing at CB. Full Doog

Yeah, Vea was huge to keep (hope it stays for the next two weeks before the window closes).
We will have a very good front (Gaines, Virta, Jaylen, Levi, McCoy, Pulu, Bowman, Clark, Scrempos)
Our edge will be better (Amandre, Benning, Tevis, Rice, Sterk, O'Brien, Warren)
LB's improved too simply because of depth (Zeem, Bierria, Beavers, Eifler, BBK, Wellington)
I saw someone else mention this, but I am very intrigued by the idea of Azeem at BUCK in some spots or maybe for the year. I really like our depth in the middle and I know he is a GREAT blitzer, and he has that mentality for it too. Obviously, I am perfectly happy if they keep him at MIK, but I do have wet dreams of him coming off the edge.
Benning could also slide to DL in situations, although I really like him at BUCK. Levi and Jaylen will both move all over the DL. Myles Rice is a real wild card, I saw (Stalked) him at the Peach Bowl DAWG WALK and he is a big kid. He was raw as hell coming out of HS but had so many rare human characteristics.
Our DBs have just so much talent, it will be young, but man. With Lake coaching these guys... Byron Murphy, Kent Love, JoJo, Isaiah Gilchrist, #MYRAPP, Jordan Miller, Zeke Turner, Keith Taylor, Austin Joyner, Molden.
I see no reason not to expect another 10 win season. -
I like Azeem at Buck. We have solid depth inside, but then again we could have some studs next year outside.
By mid season, we will be good at CB. It might take a few games to get the right guys in there. There are a lot of options and the coaches might need a little time to see who separates. -
Defense will be fine. We have lost that kind of talent and improved before. We don't need NFL players like Baker, Jones and King to compete with the Dreck-12. Biggest area to improve is pass rush on defense. Maybe some extra beef to stop the Bama/Scarborough combo. But even there, the defense wasn't really the issue. Pete has proven that player development is no longer an issue.
Much more concerned with how Browning improves, especially after losing Ross. And if the line can give him some more time against elite competition. As fun as this year was, the deep ducks that looked awesome against Rutgers level competition didn't consistently cut it against USC and Bama. -
this team should be able to make the rose bowl at the very least.
assuming vea is back, with most of the offense returning and the pass rush being better it's hard to see more than 1 loss before the PacCG with the schedule.
even if we? lose that game to USC, it would still be enough for a rose bowl bid assuming USC would be a playoff team with the pac-12 title.
I'm not sure if anyone outside of perhaps Stanford provides a real threat in the north -
Did we get something more definitive on Virta than Roofs?
-
-
I disagree with the categorization of him as a mid 1st rounder. wouldn't go there yet
-
Hmm. I'd like to have something from Virta or the school but that will have to do for now.dhdawg said:
