Quote:I really hope Davis makes the team too!  Question though - since we just paid for Hood - wouldn't he start over Miller - or is that a rotation situation also?

Hood would rotate with Marks - not Miller.  Hood is the right fit for the "3 tech" DT position and doesn't have the right tree-trunkish body type to play the one-tech like Miller or Abry Jones

 

The numbers refer to where the d-linemen line-up along the gaps in the O-line. Hope this helps...

Quote:Alualu starter and Branch in rotation or vice versa? What about Babin?  I will confess I am still learning the whole LEO thing.. so not sure how that works...
 

  Alualu would rotate with Bryant as the "non-LEO DE"  (5 tech)  They play more of a runstuffing role but still have some opportunities to rush the passer.
 

Clemons,Babin, Branch, maybe Davis or a rookie would rotate at LEO and keep fresh legs on the field getting after the QB relentlessly. In obvious passing downs when the Jags want to blitz - you may see more than one LEO out there.
