New names emerge each year. We'll be fine.

I think though that fans are just yearning for a Ngata-like game-changer on the DL. We've had solid DL units with some stand-outs. But, nothing on that level since.

Jhop said that the coaches told Colt he could play both ways next year, but they are pushing for him to play the hi-bred spot of Rowe, and let him play part time on O. One thing I know is our coaches will get him to play the bet spot for both he and the team.
I am glad to hear that the coaches would like to play him in the hi-bred spot and a few plays on offense. That is exactly what I would like to see happen, at least in the beginning, and perhaps expand his offensive role as they see fit. He would be an awesome weapon in goal line situations on offense.
