Defensive Line is Deep?

[Mojouw]

Keep reading glowing reports about some of the new DL guys in camp. Got me to thinking that this may end up being a position of strong depth even with the Tuitt retirement.

Starters
Heyward
Alualu
Ogi (I'm not spelling that)

Back-ups
Loudermilk
Adams
Leal

Should be Rostered
Wormley

May be Hard to Cut
Costin

Practice Squad Candidates
Big NT from Michigan
The Davis Brothers
Mondeuax


That is a lot of names for traditionally 6 spots. Might have to go to 7? Really interesting to see how they have been rapidly able to turn a position group of concern into potentially a strong and deep group. Maybe not as high end as it would have been with Tuitt, but that still looks like a capable top 5-7.

Alualu's age makes Adams a more important backup. Ogunjobi and Alualu are not practicing yet so Adams and Wormley are getting more practice time (going by tweets and Kozora's reports)

I have high hopes for Loudermilk this season
