we are losing:
DT - Nealy
honestly he will be a big loss. He's not super talented but just the energizer bunny. We really only played 3 DTs all year (and Mathis is also leaving but he was just depth). We have a 4* who redshirted and a few other meh players so it's probably going to be important that some true fish contribute. We've got several elite DTs coming in.
DE - Moore
Huge loss. He is our pass rush honestly, Obioha is the other DE and is a freshman. He looks good but needs to keep improving. Alonzo Williams is also a freshman and a backup. No real impact player in the recruiting class here either. There is a very talented SO who redshirted this year bc he didn't get along with the new coaches (Brandon Alexander). Lot of buzz around him lately that he's come around. Need this to be the case.
LB - Porter and Stewart
These two are huge losses as they are the leaders on defense. Soph Baggs is highly thought of and really progressed throughout the season and 2 JUCOs are coming in. Hard to replace the experience
DB - Du Harris/Terrell
Harris has been an enigma. He makes big plays and gives up big plays. Always has. Played much better down the stretch for us this year. Terrell was very average until this year when the light just seemed to come on. Even losing these two, the secondary is probably going to be a lot better next year (all our other contributors are Fr/So really)
No other seniors really were much in the way of contributors this year

So basically you lose two from all three levels of your defense? that doesn't bode well for you.
