What are the Bengals doing at Defensive Tackle?

Hubbard being healthy should help half of the edge issue at minimum. Having a DT room with a far higher floor like we do now is also a big help. Trey losing his edge from over pursuit is just something that has to be compensated for - he's a QB hunter and we want him doing that. 

You know it Joelist. As long as the DL isn't getting pushed around and our Linebackers and Secondary are communicating better while
tackling and taking better angles we should be much better this season at stopping the run. Hendrickson has never been known for being
good at sealing the edge in the run game, but Hubbard has been, and Murphy could be an upgrade over Trey on running downs.

LE ---         6
DLT ---    102

NRT ---       7
DRT ---     77

Thanks for the snaps from DJ and McKinnley Holic. Very telling, surprised DJ lined up so wide so often honestly.

McKinnley was clearly more of the Nose Tackle at A&M last year than DJ was for us. Wild. Shocked
