Most of the time it's going to be just Daniels and Guion out there (unless Guion loses the job to someone which would be awesome). If we get even 1 adequate player out of Pennell, Clark, Lowery, Ringo then were good and I don't think that's too big of an expectation. If you look at our line as Matthews/Daniels/Guion/Peppers (which it will be most of the time) it's really not a worry. Most of the time the OLB are on the line, just because they are standing up doesn't mean they aren't there taking on the OTs.

But also got to remember those front guys need to rotate a lot... so it's not just the starters but also the 2nd string depth that needs to be looked at (and sometimes 3rd string depth).
1st string: Peppers, Guion, Daniels, Matthews
2nd string: Datone, Pennel*, Clark, Perry (for the Pennel suspension, it will be Clark and Lowry)
3rd string: Fackrel, Lowry, Ringo?, Elliot
Once Pennel's suspension is over, that rotation doesn't look too bad... at least assuming Clark comes on like I think he can... of course historically I think DTs usually struggle as rookies.
