Pacific Takes · Jul 17, 2018
Ranking the Pac-12 defensive units going into the 2018 season.
Washington (DT Greg Gaines Sr. DT Jaylen Johnson Sr. DE Benning Potoa’e Jr. DT Levi Onwuzurike So. DE Shane Bowman Sr.) The Huskies lost Vita Vea to the NFL, but there cupboard is still stocked. Gaines has been Vea’s bash brother the past two years and is close to just as good as the departing first round pick. Johnson is an underrated player who could easily be first-team All-Pac-12 as a senior and Potoa’e is one of the conference’s best returning DEs.
