OTA Position Battles: Defensive Line

A huge strength on last year's team, the Defensive Line must overcome the loss of Pro Bowler Haloti Ngata. The position has received an influx of young talent the past 3 years, but can they overcome inexperience?

The 2014 defensive line was a deep group, albeit shallower than expected due to injuries and Ngata's suspension. With the losses of Kapron Lewis-Moore and Brent Urban in camp, the in-season injuries to Chris Canty and Tim Jernigan, and the 4 game suspension to Haloti Ngata, this group had much to overcome. But the front office picked up depth players like Lawrence Guy and Christian Bilukidi, who combined with DeAngelo Tyson to play 509 snaps.
