Should help everyone on defense having Allen and Hargrave in there mixing it up. Fingers crossed. Hope some of the depth behind the interior makes incremental improvements steps as well.

A lot of snaps left the building. I think Redmond will step up in the rotation. Love LDR as well and would love to see him blossom.

A lot of "mid" snaps left the building in Bullard and Tillery. I think Redmond is legit. If we can just get one of the hyphens to hit, we'll be golden. A 3-player rotation outside with Greenard, Gink and Turner along with a 3-player rotation inside with Allen, Hargrave and Redmond should be one of the better groups in the league.

Mid might be a kind assessment.

Oh, I do...I'm looking forward to that aspect of the team as much as seeing the JJM era unfold...!

KOC, JJM, Flores...make a good plan, or you'll be following Kwesi....

This is exactly what I was thinking when we signed those two dawgs.
Pressure across the entire DL will help everyone.

If you're a defensive rook or young player (i.e. Turner etc.) you get to come in and be coached/influenced by Flo, D.Jones, Allen, Hargrave, Greenard, Gink, Harry, Phillips, Cashman etc..

We talk about KOC U for QB's, the teaching environment for D rooks is pretty rich too.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Total number of sacks by tillery and Ward thru 17 games in 2024 = 1.

Fwiw Hargreave and Phillips have both played nose tackle. And they both have also played LDE.

ALLEN had played both LDE AND RDE.

Flo will be able to exploit matchups. It will also be easier to get Redmond, LDR and Dawkins on the field.

Flores will be able to send waves. He hasn't had the depth to do it since he got here. Allen and Hargreave won't be out of gas late in the 4th quarter
