Positions of need: Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

We're taking a look at the biggest holes on each ACC team's roster. Next up, Georgia Tech.

Area of need: Pass-rushing linemen

For several years now, Georgia Tech has struggled to get after the quarterback, and changing that has to be an offseason priority. Between 2015 and 2016, Georgia Tech has just 30 total sacks (that's fewer than nine ACC teams had in 2016 alone). Georgia Tech loses three senior starters from its defensive line (including sacks leader Pat Gamble), so building depth here while working on finding ways to get better behind the line will be something for defensive coordinator Ted Roof to change headed into 2017.
