2023 DL Draft Prospects Group Assessment

[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

Thought I'd start circling back to these after the first wave of FA. We have our first DL signing in DE Tarell Basham. Contract details are not out yet. I'd expect a 1 year deal with around a $1 mil cap hit. Given his sub 270 pound frame, I expect him to compete as an edge rusher for the DE5 spit with Gunter rather than compete with Sample, who plays more in the Hubbard/set the edge role. Basham also has some OLB experience.
