I spent a lot of time watching the defensive line and the first thing that stands out is just how much the defensive ends look like an upper echelon unit.

The group that includes Derrick Barnett, Kongbo, Phillips, Mixon, Lewis, Vereen, Taylor and Austin Smith just looks great. They are big and athletic and seem very hungry out there.

Kongbo takes the drills very seriously and seems to practice the way you want a newcomer to practice. Very intense for sure.

Kahlil and Quay Picou looked good. McKenzie moves a lot better this year.

Daniel Bituli, physically, looks really impressive.

Brandon Johnson and Tyler Byrd are both living up to being able to play in this receiver rotation. And Callaway looks to be coming on as well. But, I think the additions of those guys are going to pay off.

And in those one-on-ones, Guarantano made a really nice throw to Johnson. A nice back shoulder fade.
