    Now we need to start going for a massive DT in this class.

    I think an offensive tackle or two is a bigger need.

    Hi zilla, I think it's possibly yes but certainly no reaches.

    true but with 5(?) SDEs, one true DT, and a solid rush end, how many more should we take in a cycle? I love the SDEs. One more big DT would be awesome. In a couple of seasons UF can throw waves of DL at offenses.

    I agree. But we can’t have a Dline made up of all edge players. We need the DT and the OTs. Those should be our priorities as of right now

    We should probably be done with DEs. But I’d make room for a couple more true DTs

    With Napier’s knowledge of metrics he may pick a guy or 2 who can transform fairly quickly to DT.

    And you are correct. We need one more true DT. But I see four SDEs where more than likely two hit 280+ so I feel good about this DL class even if we do not get another DT. But aren't we looking good for at least two more big guys?

    OT? Nother story. We shall see.
