There was an article that said Vince Biegel is getting more pass rush snaps... But he doesn’t have great length. Maybe Porter Gustin surprises.

Mario Edwards has said that the coaching staff very clearly stated he’ll be a 3-technique.

Okay, I'm gonna seem like I'm talking outta my arse, but keep in mind, I've been critical of what it took to get Davenport, not Davenport, who was a fine draft prospect (not my fave)...

That said, yeah, will miss Okafor who showed up and played himself into a great contract, but we now have a former first round pick who can rotate with Cam, Davenport, and Trey-Rex - that's not too shabby...

Now Davenport SHOULD (cue Mora clip) be healthy, will have been in an NFL strength program for a year, and is now acclimated, rested with a full off-season that doesn't include stressing his body for the Draft...

Davenport will be the key though...

Brothers and Sisters, our 2018 rookies on DE and WR, and OL will be the difference this year...
