How Texas A&M will fill its biggest hole on defense; Aggies must stay healthy in middle of the field

Just a couple years ago, the Texas A&M defense was the biggest issue facing the Aggies. With the addition of defensive coordinator John Chavis, the Maroon and White have gotten things turned around and now consider defense to be one of the biggest strengths.

Up front Myles Garrett, Daeshon Hall and Daylon Mack are among those who man the defensive line. Using their size, speed and football instinct, they spent 2015 bursting through opposing offensive lines and found great success. As for the secondary, Armani Watts totalled over 100 tackles while senior Brandon Williams made a successful transition from running back to corner, and now may be looking at a future in the NFL after the switch.
