Bill C.: Before Harold Brantley's injury, Rickey Hatley was certainly going to be in the rotation on the interior of the defensive line, along with Josh Augusta and Terry Beckner Jr. With Brantley out for the season, however, Hatley is now going to be relied upon. He's gone from being someone who could become a starter-caliber to someone who has to.
Hatley's 2014 stats don't say much, but by the second half of the season, I found myself growing confident in him when he was in the game. He was putting on good size but still seemed to have decent quickness.
