Syracuse Football: SU defensive line will live up to Bleacher Report hype

Syracuse football lost some key pieces from their 10-3 record-breaking 2018 campaign: star quarterback Eric Dungey, NFL draftee Chris Slayton, stud WR Jamal Custis, and key pieces on the offensive line (Koda Martin, Cody Conway).

One of the underrated losses is Chris Slayton. He didn’t put up monster stats during his time on the hill (7.5 sacks), but he ate up double and triple teams in the middle. Which allowed senior defensive ends Kendall Coleman and Alton Robinson to have one-on-one matchups vs offensive tackles more times than not.
