Mike Traini of "Fight Massachusetts" has two position reviews: Defensive Line and Edge Rushers.
The Minutemen have a mostly new front seven this year. We usually are weak against the run and do OK in pass defense. A more athletic front seven would be a big step towards respectability. Coach Brown is known for his defensive schemes, but he has to have the players to work with. I think this year we'll see more defensive packages and a more attacking defense.
