Also look at Cunningham and Francis size which I listed below. They're not actually DT types at all. We used them in the that role out of necessity because the combination of Fanene and Pryor not being here left us without a pass rush option from the inside.

Cunningham 6'3 255lbs
Francis 6'2 268lbs

I would say you will not see a return of Trevor Scott and Marcus Benard will need to show up at camp in a big way to make the team.

Cunningham might get cut this year. It's 50-50. I'd say he's going to be a bubble player in training camp again.

That's because he was on Performance Enhancers. Once he came back from his suspension, he didn't have much of an impact at all. Probably because he had to get off the roids.

I wasn't too excited about his USC highlights, but he looks much quicker in the CFL reel.

He had 45 tackles, 4 interceptions and 2 fumble recoveries as a rookie in limited snaps. Sent Chung to 3rd string..

That is a very good rookie season for a 2nd round draft pick.

If he was juicing the effects would not of changed in 4 weeks. He did not get the opportunity because BB felt Francis earned the snaps over him during his absence.

Yeah, I don't know how much stock a person can put in his college tape considering that was 2010.

Yep. Cunningham might rely on the steroids to play defensive tackle. But you can't draw any conclusions from what we've seen to this point. Wait until training camp and then we'll talk.

Ryan Wendell played more snaps than any OL in football.. Nick McDonald is an above average backup when healthy. I don't see a need at center at all.
What does Ryan Wendell have to do to get some respect? Throw a few touchdowns?? In terms of consistency, I personally feel the guy might have been our offensive MVP. Perhaps that is an exaggeration, but the point remains.

Based off his 2010 tape he was only a mid round pick, but he did flash the potential to be dominant. He was poised for a breakout year before his medical condition where he could have pushed himself towards the first round. I haven't seen a lot of tape of him in the CFL, but from what I have seen it looks like he finally took that step up that people were waiting for since he was highly recruited to USC. From his CFL highlights he looks much more explosive and disruptive than what I remember at USC and showed the potential to be a disruptor inside. The other thing I really like about him is he adds more length to the D-line. He has long arms, uses his hands pretty well and bats down lots of balls at the LOS.

I dont follow these things as closely as most of you here. And I fully trust you. Judging by everybody's reaction this sounds amazing. But please, please, please, for the love of all things great and small, can we get some big, smack em' in the mouth CB's and Safeties. Oh, and throw in a WR or 2. Thank you, SBR. . Bring on 2013

Here's an independent scouting report in case you think we're too partisan here

Sideline Scouting - Armond Armstead Scouting Report

Was projected prior to last season as an eventual late first or early second round pick so the talent is clearly there... Was very mature about not playing during the 2011 season and wasn't a distraction to the program; wanted to play for another school next season but Southern California said they would block any transfer request.

(lots more at the link)
