I don't disagree, it's getting the best 5 on the field.
I can see Wilson playing RT at a place like Bama, but just like Fluker, his best overall position may be inside.
No telling what Key's opinion is on the guys he has now on the interior...

I agree with the cartoon gorilla avi. Will be very interested in how new coach views recent interior lineman.

No offense, but the four guys you listed have ZERO sacks between them. None.
Now I know they will probably get a few this upcoming season in mop up duty, but that doesn't mean they will turn into productive starters.
I look at pass rushers like I do OTs. If you don't have elite talent there, it screws with your entire scheme. We've enjoyed great success without having stud rushers in the past, but the game has changed. We have got to replace Timmy, Ryan and Jon with good players or we are going to struggle next year.

I'm really exciting for Minkah next year. His run defense is severely undderated.
This defense is going to be sick with the experience and speed they have coming back.

Well I'll be honest about the interior guys we have on the roster. I'm not too impressed thus far with most of them.
Hass looked terrible in relief last year and got passed by Pierschbacher. Bozeman may never start again. Warmack isn't his brother. Casher may never even play. Petitbon is hurt. Who knows what we have in Owens? Brown is over 400 pounds.
Kennedy and Cotton may be the only two that start that are currently on the team, sans Ross and Shank.
Doesn't exactly give me the warm fuzzies.

Didn't Christian Miller get a couple sacks this past year. I'm almost certain that he did.

No. He had a few in scrimmages and A-Day from this past spring.

He created havoc in mop-up in a couple games. I guess he was never registered with a sack. He's considered a great pass rusher by the staff, but needs to work A LOT on playing the run, and still needs to put on more weight.

Anticipating arrival of Christian Miller the most this year. He will be a majpr force in my opinion.

I see Baker and Williams starting at the tackle spots in 17 and 18. I got Leatherwood at right guard in 17. He could come in and start their his first year.

Recapping week of recruiting:
- 3 teams are still involved with OT Isaiah Wilson in Bama, UGA, and Michigan. At the moment Bama has the edge over the other two.
- According to sources Jedrick Wills is expected to make decision in "the next couple of days" and Bama appears to be team to beat
- Tide still the heavy favorite for TE Major Tennison and Devonta Smith
- Bama vs. LSU battle for Jacoby Stevens. Bama still trending. UGA is out
- We lead for 2018 cornerback Isaac Taylor-Stuartfrom San Diego

Hank just CB'd Wills and Wilson to Bama. Guess we will close out with those two. That would be a monstor OL class.
Posted on 7/25/16 at 8:57 am to Rizzy
Damn, Randolph getting left out
Posted on 7/25/16 at 8:58 am to remaster916
He's supposedly trending to Bama too. That would make 6 on the oline, not sure if we would take 6 though.

I can't believe we are going to take Brannon over Randolph.
I mean, Brannon doesn't even have a highlight reel.

I just asked Hank about Randolph, hopefully he responds.

Speaking of CBs, here are a couple of note that were made yesterday and this morning:
- Cam Akers to Ohio State
- A bunch for Trey Smith to Tennessee (they hired his sister)
- Xavier McKinney to Clemson
- Marvin Wilson to Texas (by a Texas mod no less)
