Yep. I think Johnson and Lima are both in an NFL camp next August with a good chance at making the roster. Big losses along the defensive front, so any reinforcements are welcome!
I don't think we'll see much of a dropoff if at all on the d-line for next year. Peterson, Uwazerike, Bailey, as well as an older McDonald. Throw in Bankston and Isaiah Lee and that's still an extremely talented line.

I remember a previous coach who said he couldn't recruit the defense line, that defensive line in 2020 is loaded.

Did anyone else's heart skip a beat when he said he was committing to "the University of Iowa State"? Welcome to the family, big fella!

Don't overlook Tucker Robertson. He's played more snaps than expected, even though he's had to move outside to do it due to Lima and Johnson playing so well inside.
