Link: Defensive Line taking shape: Stinson bulks up, Jesse Williams slims down

[First Sergeant]

I think we're going to pressure the QB very well this year.

I hope so, I believe it is the only piece we are truely missing!!

Just to clarify again....JW is not maori or polynesian. There are quite a few threads discussing this across a range of forums. Jesse is indigenous Australian and his heritage is identified as Torres Strait Islander (on his mother's side), a specific group of indigenous Australians from the far north of Queensland.

One guy on that defensive line that definitely shouldn't be overlooked is Darrington Sentimore. He has a motor that's out of this world. Only problem is, he needs to learn how to reel it in and quit with the mental mistakes. I think if he can harness that, we can have a big motor guy on our d-line that we haven't seen since Jarrett Johnson and Kendall Morehead

I agree with this 100%. Im surprised he doesnt get more attention. All of the talk is about the others on the D line, but I think Sentimore will be the man. He is an animal, and he is always where the ball is. QBs are going to hate him.

Thanks for checking in. Looking forward to more of your comments once your mate joins his teammates on the field.

No problem. Following it all closely and keen to see spring underway and then visit to see in person in the fall.

You've never experienced anything like a football Saturday in Tuscaloosa my friend

I can't wait to see our DL in action this year.

I think Sentimore, Stinson, Moore and Dial are all going to be stalwarts on the defensive front this year. The 2009 recruiting class was awesome and I think this year is when we'll start to feel the effects from that. Can't wait.

You don't see Williams starting?

Of course I do. I just think all of these guys will play a big role along with Williams. The depth is sick.

I see now you put "stalwarts." For some reason, I thought you said starters. My bad.

Don't sleep on Anthony Orr either. Keep hearing good things about him. He could suprise this year. Heard he's really bulked up.

I think this defense has a chance to really be salty this year. I really liked Stinson on special teams last year and with the athleticism he showed he could be an Eryk Anders 2.0 player but bigger. EA was one of my favorites off the NC team--overachiever etc.

I’ve heard that too. They said he is not as fit as where he wants to be, but that he has lost some fat but gained the weight back with muscle. Adding pounds that way... I can't wait to see what he looks like. I hope they are right.
