How immediate an impact do defensive line transfers make?

As you well know by now, Missouri made a move to add to its 2018 defensive line by luring transfer Jordan Elliott from Texas.

The 6-foot-4, 318-pound Elliott played in six games as a true freshman for the Longhorns last season, making eight tackles and one tackle for loss. The he decided to follow former position coach Brick Haley, who recruited him as a 3-star, 5.7 Rivals Rated recruit out of Houston’s Westside High School, to Columbia.

Missouri did a ton of scaffolding work on the defensive line with its class of 2017 and, with Elliott coming on board, looks to want to continue that trend for 2018.
