Assuming they are both starting, how many sacks do you think Junior and Tez will combine for?

I believe Tez will be playing ILB so I doubt many for him. If Gallete gets the start at ROLB, I think 10 is a pretty realistic number.
You think Tez will be a backup behind Hawthorne and Lofton? Interesting take I haven't seen yet.
Spencer and Ware combined for 22.5 sacks last season for comparison sake. I made the poll under the assumption that Junior was ROLB and Tez was at LOLB.
To be honest, I'm really not sure what's going to.happen with Hawthorne. I wouldn't be suprised if a 4-3 team would seek a trade for him. It's going to be up to Ryan. Whom ever he thinks is the better fit. I personally think Tez is a better fit inside. Have you seen tape of this guy on the playing MLB? Straight up animal in college. With a thumper in Lofton and a athletic guy like Tez to go sidelime to sideline, I would be pretty optimistic about our ILB's. I don't think Tez has any real pass rush moves besides pure speed.
Yeah I think we may end up moving Hawthorne for whatever we can get. Before anyone gets too excited, itll probably be after the draft and into preseason and probably be for some conditional low draft pick in 2014.
I think right now Hawthorne is a better player than Tez, but if you can unload him, get a draft pick, free up cap space, and still have a player with a higher ceiling, I say you do it. On a side note, I just can't see Ryan bringing in his system without even one LB that's ever played in a 34 D. It will be interesting to see how it shakes out
I voted 20-25. I think Junior is a star in the making. I've watched a lot of pass rushers and he has such a great first step combined with a very good arsenal of pass rushing moves.
I think Junior can get between 12-15 sacks assuming the team does well and we are winning games which means we are leading late.
If Junior goes off then it will leave a lot of chances for Martez. They combined for 9 sacks last seasons with about half the defensive snaps that Cam Jordan got by himself. They are both better suited for a 34 and playing on a more aggressive defense next season then I think 20-25 is a realistic number assuming they both start, stay healthy and the team as a whole plays well.
im not so sure about that stat. that would mean Tez got 5 sacks, and i dont think that's the case
