The fact that Wilson isn't on that list is a tremendous improvement :lol:
But nobody has ever thrown a shoe further than Marco. Alas, for loss of a shoe, a chance at a championship was lost. And enough of this foolishness that it shouldn't have been a penalty! He deserved the flag just for being stupid!

Prince is not a LB. He is a DE. I think he can more than hold his own at DE next year.

Suddenly, our DL doesn't look so bad going into the spring. Getting Shelton was huge & Carter returning was just as big.

Word is that Goods and Humphries are returning as well.

I think Prince is the #2 at SDE and Carter stays there, even if he gets over 290. Dexter will have a full off season in the S&C program, which he badly needs. He has the talent and speed, just needs some strength. Dunlap is a solid returning piece and will provide 10-20 snaps a game. Boone could also get some time there and Powell needs a spot.

I think Chatfield and Bogle are your backup Bucks. Chatfield ain't playing ILB w/ the youth we have there ready to step in (Wingo, Hopper, and possible Borders).

I think Watson redshirts due to his girth, but he can still play 4 games, same w/ Thomas & Sapp.

If Lang improves and Lee makes strides, both should provide 10+ snaps/game. We'll have a solid heavy rotation w: Shelton, Dexter, Carter as starters; Cox, Bogle, Chatfield at Buck. Then you have Princely, Lang, Lee, Humphries, Dunlap, and Goods in the heavy rotation.

I'm expecting Dexter to take a massive leap within the next 1-2 years. I don't think I've ever seen a 5-star DT be that weak, but with no spring practice, and workouts limited, this guy went from playing Buchholz to the SEC. Hopefully this year was a rough wake up call that he's not already an NFL guy. Alot of these 5-stars seem to think they are ready for the NFL and we are just a flashy stepping stone for their own careers.

I agree, I think he could be a real 3-down OLB/DE possibly even better than Greenard was. I would like to see Boone get some PT, he could be a legit SDE.
