So far we’ve looked at Ole Miss football by offensive position groups and graded each one based on depth and experience. Now it’s time for the defensive positions and we’ll see how solid the Rebels are on that side of the ball.
Last season we watched the defense get progressively better as the Rebels got deeper in the season. One of the strong points for that success was on the defensive line. Behind the aggressive play of Breeland Speaks and Marquis Haynes we saw the defense improve towards the end of 2017.
However, in 2018 there will be no Speaks and Haynes so where will the defensive line find their replacements?
