2018 tOSU Defense Discussion

I doubt Berry moves back to defense. He looks like the starter next year at TE. I'm sure the coaches will bring in a couple DE recruits.
I wonder if Antwaun Jackson couldn't play DE. He was at DE in high school a lot.

So many people keep suggesting to move Berry back, when he's the only known commodity at TE.

Will Alexander be back? Will the others finally step up? Is Ruckert ready for big time CFB? All of those are major questions. I'm not surrendering my only reliable TE to supply a 4th DE.

I haven't looked up the snap count, but I'd bet that Baugh outsnapped every single offensive skill player not named barrett. TEs are a big part of the offense, no matter how many passes are thrown to them.

I heard this on BN radio 5 this AM and I agree with it...

I'd love to see Booker moved to DE because he has the height and he can probably add another 10-15 pounds easily in one off season. His speed would be huge and when you factor in Booker being lost at LB I think you have a good candidate to step up at DE.

Straight outta NCAA ... damn I miss that game. 74 OLB = 92 DE...
But does make a lot of sense.

I used to pretty much play nickel man all the time, and i would blitz with the slot DB every single play. Dude would win every defensive award every year. It was so silly and fun. He'd have like 74 TFLs with 68 sacks.

I'll go one further... I would go in dime formation and blitz both slot DBs. Literally I would have 13 sacks a game (I'd also edit the slot DBs to have 99 speed)
