Defensive Line Thread

I recently read something about a 5 man line with Kinlaw, Hargrave and Armstead playing inside and it speaks volumes for Kins potential. I have hope this man's hard work can pay off. With these 3 bulls and Bosa plus whoever gets reps at the other end it's scary how dominant our front can be.

Well well well

Great news all around. If he's truly healthy and can learn to play 1T and add a tad pass rush, that would be huge.

I would be blown away if Kinlaw has a career similar to Arik. A lot of us once gave up on Armstead too because of the injuries and other things that slowed his development. Kinlaw is only 25 years old, which is the same age Arik turned his career around, so I'm excited to see if Javon can do the same. He has freakish traits and now his body seems to be finally allowing him to fully utilize all his natural talent.

This defensive line is looking absolutely loaded. We're about to see something special when Bosa signs his record breaking contract.

Still have hope for Kinlaw but I'm taking all these reports with a grain of salt. Seen flashes and dud plays from him.

Where'd you read that?

they ran a few reps with a 5 man DL front one one of the TC practices

Perhaps that was a goal line package?

That's what she said.

Depth is a major issue here. They need to get Bosa signed and ready to go. Not sure what Drake's injury status but the DE position is thin.

When you talk about preseason winners and losers on the DL, Bosa comes up as the biggest winner. They desperately need him and I'm guessing he gets paid this week.

Their run defense is going to be bad this year.

Not when Bosa and Greenlaw get back
