Dru Prox (FR, 6' 1" 200 lbs)
BREAKDOWN
The good news here is that this might be the best combination of returning experience and youth of any position group on the team. Possibly the deepest position on this team as well. Unfortunately, we primarily only play 2 LBs out there. That being said, this is one position group that I think we can have a true rotation of guys going forward this next season. In fact, I would argue Dineen and Roberts don't get as many tackles this year because of more of a true rotation going on. I can easily see a 6 man rotation at this spot between Dineen/Roberts/Arnick/Ogbebor/Duckworth/Long. Also couldn't discount guys like Loneker, Hall, and Rosser logging in some snaps. I think by the end of the season, one of Ogbebor/Duckworth/Long push for Roberts starting spot. The thing I like the most with this group is with the addition of Long, we can really match up against a bunch of different sets with this group. Can go up against power teams with Long/Dineen. Go against speeds teams with Duckworth/Arnick. Have guys like Roberts/Ogbebor that can go up against either. Versatile group with some bodies, I expect this group to have a solid year.
