🏈 This 'Bama defense is different

[JoshB]

Anderson and Williams play DE in nickel and dime packages in many cases which makes the depth better.

Anderson
Williams
Allen
Payne
Tomlinson
Payne

That was the main group.

Beyond that, we'll see who steps up from this group

King
Ball
Anfernee Jennings
Raekwon Davis
Frazier
Dwight
Smith

The bodies are there. If 3 guys from the bottom list prove their worth, DLine becomes very deep.

Rashaan will put his hand in the dirt some too. Raekwon has got to step up (is he even cleared tho?) and Josh Frazier especially if Dalvin is going to miss some time at some point this season.

I think you mean neither Ro or Bennett could cover as well as Reuben.

I did...bitch editing sometimes

Good call. Add Evans to the lost as a situational rusher.

I'm hopeful Christian Miller can also find his way into the rotation as a situational edge rusher.

Frazier seems capable of helping at NT in base D, which will be needed in a few games this year.

Good news there:
