They lost 3 guys out of their secondary to the NFL draft.

They lost both of their starting linebackers to the NFL draft.

They lost both starting Defensive tackles to the NFL Draft.

They lost their starting defense end to the NFL.

********Most assume Florida just reloads******

Yet McElwain has brought in only 4......

Yes. 4 blue chip (4* and 5*) defense players that will be sophomores or juniors. (His 2017 class has 7 defensive blue chip players)

******Therefore, the assumption is***********
1. Their back ups last year gained experience.

2. Their freshman will step right in and replace Tabor and Wilson and not Miss a beat.

3. Their 2* and 3* recruits are all gems and will just play like all the Muschamp defensive classes.

*****Florida impact defensive players*****

1. Duke Dawson- burned repeatedly by Tennessee last year. The worst secondary player they had last year will now be their most experienced. Mucschamp guy

2. CJ Jeffferson- Meh

3. Marcell Harris- Muschamp guy. Solid safety with a lot of experience.

********Florida has not reloaded***************

Their offense better be explosive. (Yet, when you don't sign any talent on the offensive line for 2 classes and Muschamp left you nothing, it's kinda difficult)

Will Grier plays for West Virginia now. He was their only savior
