Mike Elko has a tough task ahead of him in the 2019 season for Texas A&M football. He lost more than half his starters on defense, six of whom were drafted or signed free agent contracts with NFL teams this offseason. Three of those players were starters on the defensive line.
The lone guy remaining for another season is Justin Madubuike, who may end up being the best player of all four starters from the 2018 season. He was overshadowed by the fact that the unit was so good together, but make no mistake about it, he is a baller.
