It cannot be over look that in 9 games here Carlos had 1 sack and he's had 4 in 3 games at Seattle. Hubbard has gone from 8.5 to 1.

If we go Sewell in the first )although I'd argue Rousseau was just as dominant as Sewell in 2019) we definitely need to go DL. I personally have my eye on Nixon from Iowa. We could use our own Aaron Donald. Nixon lives in the opponent's backfield.

Sewell definitely has the edge in accolades. Not the end all be all ofc (Billy Price won a Rimington Award after all). It’s a bit harder to quantify just how dominant an offensive lineman was, but not allowing a single sack in 2019, and only one in 1376 snaps is about as impressive as it gets.

Sewell:
Outland Trophy
Morris Trophy
Unanimous All-American
AP first team All-American
First team All Pac-12


Rousseau:
ACC DROY
First team All-ACC
Second team All-American
