Quinn's defense doesn't use that big of a body. Brandon Mebane in Seattle was a former 3T and was listed at 6-1 311.
Tyeler Davison with the Falcons is listed at 6-2 316.
Jarran Reed is a 3T (Poona Ford is Seattle's 1T at 5-11 309)
1T - lower center of gravity with power. Burst helps. Length doesn't help as much because it's too crowded in there to make use of it. That's why leverage and power are at a premium.
Gallimore - 6-2 302. Put a bit more weight on Gallimore, and we have a nice, balanced run/pass 1T. I'd get a bigger one too for run defense and goal line. Gallimore can play 3TRun/1TPass. Paired with a true run stuffing 1T, and we're looking stout at DT against the run.
Urban at DE. Lawrence on the other side. Gallimore at 3T and drafted run stuffing 1T. That should be good run defense dline. Could use a pass rush LB to deal with play action. Not much rush there otherwise.
Hill - just bad news trying to 2gap. He was drafted raw as a pure up the field 1gap, and has barely gotten snaps to go beyond raw at 1gap. He's a poor fit developmental player with only 2 years left. Use him for what he was drafted as, a pure 1gap pass rusher, and move on.
We're close to a dline that can stop the run. LBs are the problem. I have some hope that LVE plays better. But not Jaylon.
