This one is difficult because most of the defensive end group is a huge question mark.
Sam Hubbard is going to be a career solid defensive end but behind him is where the questions start. Trey Hendrickson had a breakout year in 2020 on a really stacked defense and defensive line. He one was the the league's sack leaders but was outside of the top 10 in pressures. Hendrickson was signed to an expensive prove it deal.
Joeseph Ossai is a extremely talent rookie with alot of upside and potential versatility but he is a very raw 3rd round pick with only 1 year of college experience on the edge. The other 2021 drafted DE/OLB/DT Cameron Sample has a lightning fast first step and power to go along with being more technically refined than Ossai but he doesnt have the athleticism to bend the edge from a wider formation and would probably be better as a 4,4i,3T,5. Khalid Kareem is the 2020 6th round draft pick with a low ceiling but potentially high floor. He has that potential to be a Sam Hubbard caliber Edge.
The defensive line is probably the unit with the most question marks going into the 2021 season but with a ton of potential.
Where do they rank in the league?
