What's your starting D line?

[LocimusPrime]

Ran across this. What's your starting Dline for the upcoming season?

 

[LocimusPrime]

Broaddus on Moore

 

[WillieBeamen]

LDE-Tank
1-Thornton
3-Collins
RDE-Taco

 

[CF74]

Give me the 4 healthiest and freshest players because with the exception of Maliek Collins and maybe Mayowa, they are all about the same...

 

[JoeyBoy718]

RDE - Taco
3DT - Crawford
1DT - Collins
LDE - Irving

 

[Section446]

So depressing to think about. Can anyone name a worse starting 4?

 

[Teague31]

DLaw and Moore at the ends
Collins and Thornton at the tackles

I take it you don't like Taco.

Just because there isn't a lot of name recognition doesn't mean it stinks.

The numbers from last season concerning both pass rush and run defense have been posted time after time and neither figure was below average or could be considered bad.

Statistics don't tell the full story, we'd got entire halves without getting close to the QB.

I think our DL is a bit underrated; lots of young guys with physical skills and a lot to prove.. let's see who steps up

Collins is the only starting caliber DL

 

[Stash]

LDE - Charlton
UT - Collins
NT - Thornton
RDE - Mayowa

 

[Section446]

Collins is the only starting caliber DL

And even he leaves a lot to be desired (granted, he gets a pass due to being so young).

 

[Deep_Freeze]

If TCraw is starting at DE and Thorton at DT, I will need some vodka when we are on D.

Just last week there was an article saying he could make the jump to All Pro level.

You've been doing this long enough to know that you don't buy into the hype and hypotheticals in July.

Come to the table with facts and figures proving your point... Then I'll pay attention.

Do I think this is the defensive line to end all defensive lines?

No.

But to say they're possibly the worst in the NFL is goofy.
