I am assuming either.
We have 10 guys from last year under contract on the DL. There are no holes. So we are talking upgrades.
On the edge, I have to think 4 out of 5 are safe. Hendrickson, Hubbard, and Ossai for sure. And almost certainly Cam Sample. I could see Gunter getting upgraded.
On the interior, I only feel 2 guys are safe, Reader and BJ Hill. We havd kep 3 NT types and 2 DT types the last couple years, and I think that continues. Tupou & Tufele are acceptable backups, but I could see either or both upgraded. Carter played better down the stretch, but was bad early. I doubt we give up on him after one year, though. The DT class is also pretty thin. We could carry 11 but that means a cut somewhere else.
