Checking out the current roster we have 6 DE's that could/should see action next year. How many have started? One. How many have actually taken snaps in a game? 2. We threw out offers to several JUCO kids this year. QB. RB. Why no DE offers? A position of need. There were 5 DE's in the top 50 JUCO rankings. We offered zero of them. Why?

I will list the DE's we currently have on roster including our 2016 class. The class ranking is what they'll be in 2016 season.

Seth Dooley- RS Junior
Ken Ekanem- RS Senior
Darius Fulwood- RS Freshman
Houshun Gaines- RS Freshman
Trevon Hill- RS Freshman
Vinny Mihota- RS Sophomore
Jimmie Taylor- Freshman

The state of Virginia has quite a few DE's in the 2017 class in the Virginia top 30. Four of the top 10 are DE's. Can we sign any of them? Luiji Vilain is #3. TyJuan Garbutt is #6. Yetur Matos is #9. Jordan Williams is #10. They are MUST GETS. We have to sign at least two of them. Less than that is a total and complete failure.
