Before opening the post, I assumed it would be extremely low. Reader and Ogun are the two most significant pieces of the puzzle to precipitate improvement for the entire defense, much like the foundation of a house. Putting players in a defense without being strong in the trenches is like trying to build a castle in the sky.

That is why it is a good approach, the foundation is set along with adding Shelvin and hopefully Wren coming along with his talent.
I also like Tupou if his head is in it. Shelvin and Tupou are 2 monsters, try running through the middle on those guys.

Right on Nate! Would be great to see Shelvin work out, and glad you mentioned Wren…he is obviously a wildcard, but seems to have the most upside (of the returning players sans Reader) if he hits. I know Ogun had a down year in ‘20, but prior to that, he was one of my favorite DTs in the league. I still follow IDP fantasy analysis from when I did some work in it and he was a very good defensive tackle statistically and analytically. He’s also still relatively young for a FA aquisition.

All true brother.
Ogunjobi was just used wrong last year, he is not a NT, he is a 3-tech like Geno which is where we are going to put him.
LO was just thrust into the NT position cause of injuries, not his fault he ain't a big monster like Shelvin and Tupou.
