Mavric Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Steven M. Sipple @HuskerExtraSip 30m Nebraska's defense looks excellent at this early stage. If there's a concern, it's lack of depth at defensive end. #Huskers Steven M. Sipple @HuskerExtraSip 28m Although depth is a concern at DE, the #Huskers top two at that spot -- Randy Gregory and Greg McMullen -- look excellent. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 Mike'l Severe @MikelSevere 3m Got to love the way 7 and 55 get off blocks and sprint to the ball. 98 and 96 are both real good in the phone booth. Need depth at DE tho. 7 - Soph. DT Maliek Collins 55 - Soph. DT Kevin Maurice 96 - Jr. DT Aaron Curry 98 - Soph. DT Vincent Valentine Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 AJ Natter didn't practice today with a bum knee. Pelini said McMullen is playing at a "high level" Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Unless a true fresh emerges, Keels and Natter are pretty vital for depth with the loss of Moss Quote Link to comment
RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 If we are really that thin at DE then this is where if like to see us take some 6'2-6'3 210-220 LB linebacker and use him as a situational pass rusher. Maybe a true or redshirt freshman that's buried on the LB depth chart but has great athleticism. Just maybe lacking In play book knowledge. We got anyone like that? A Trev Alberts type.

Mavric Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 Walton Fits the size, but I like him way too much at MIKE. With Banderas moving to BUCK, Walton only has Roach between him and the #2 spot. Quote Link to comment

We do have King and Wills coming in this fall. Not sure they'll be ready to play right away but will definitely add depth. Quote Link to comment

StPaulHusker Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Zaire Anderson could play DE I bet. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 Zaire Anderson could play DE I bet. That could be an option. I was wondering what would happen with Anderson with Banderas moving to Buck. Might need to find some other ways to get him on the field. Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 If Natter didn't scrimmage I could definitely see why they are saying we need depth....he's a top 4 rotation type guy. Quote Link to comment
swmohusker Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I could see curry or Collins moving out to d end In a pinch. Bring in banderas for situational pass down. Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 In 2003, Bo unleashed super D. If we are short at DE, a converted LB could work wonders in that spot. Quote Link to comment
theknife Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Have there been any reports on Keels? Quote Link to comment
