For the D-line, basically traded Cravens for John Taumoepeau and Mahe
for Luke To'omalitai. As far as talent goes it's undetermined until the season starts because Taumoepeau nor To'omalitai has taken a snap yet. As far as experience goes it's not close Cravens and Mahe were both 5th year seniors with multiple years of playing D1, Taumoepeau nor To'omalitai has taken a snap above JC. IMO not sure it will be better, maybe the same.

If the talk of Mangelson and possibly Tuala playing inside is accurate it will help, but if they are playing 20 pounds under weight not sure they will soak up blockers any better than the other DTs.

Hoping Kelly is the real deal, Esera stays healthy and Taggart / Kafusi take a big steps forward. If that happens and they understand Hill's scheme I'm hoping the LBs can make the difference in the run game. Hoping Asiata and Bryant-Strothers are used as pass rush specialists to get more pressure on the QB.
