Jovan Swann is not on it.
DWP is the only DT and only guy over 285 at DL.
Every other DL is a DE: Booker, Johnson, Pakola, Schaffer, Boles, La Bounty
Guessing Booker will get snaps as a massively undersized DT in Spring.
Feeling better about my theory Tobin Phillips will not be redshirting in 2020.

The roster weights are from the 2019 camp roster and don't appear to be updated yet. Both Schaffer and Booker moved inside along with the Williams and DWP during pass rushing downs with the OLBs taking the DE positions. Expect that Phillips will not redshirt as he is already 290lbs and should help inside as well.

Pryts is also gone.

Pryts is not gone but not on the roster
We await more info

Correct, weights not updated from summer/fall camp. We’ll have to wait on that.

Funny how this weights "mis-assumption" happens every year at this time.
RE: Spring Football Roster is Posted - OutsiderFan - 02-18-2020
A couple responses to some of the replies above.
- There are 6 ILBs without Pryts, and he hasn't been a difference maker, so hard to imagine his presence or absence mattering much either way.
- The numbers on the Spring roster may not be indicative of the weights certain players will play at in September, but as far as DL goes, I don't think there is reason to expect they would change much outside of Pakola, who is still listed at the weight (257) he had as a True Frosh. Hopefully he will be at least 270 after a full year in the program.

Would be nice to keep Pryts. He led the team in tackles and played a bunch of STs to boot. Graded out better than Robinson.
Overall, we're way more often in nickel, so only have 2 DL on the field 80+% of the time. 3rd and short would usually be a "normal" 3-4. Goal line/4th and short would be 3-4 or 4-4 depending on the opponent's offensive personnel/formation. This is why we need our OLBs to be on the bigger side since they're usually either rushing the passer or containing the edge. Toohill was pushing 250, for example. Andres Fox is 6'4" 252 which is close to ideal edge rusher/heavy OLB/weak-side DE weight, though I'm unsure what's happening with him now.
The 2015 Rose Bowl team rotated 3.5 DL all year and was similarly almost always in nickel. At the very least there will be more depth than that. Not so sanguine about quality though. Booker is solid, DWP has shown flashes, Schaffer has come a long way, Pakola a well-regarded recruit. But we need the whole room to step it up. Personally I would love to see Ryan Johnson gain some more weight and actually contribute...certainly a massive opportunity here. Agree that Tobin Phillips will more than likely burn his shirt - he's coming in with great size from day 1. Early PT a very realistic pitch for some '21 DL recruits.
Had Dylan Powell stayed this year (was the backup C last season), I would've been screaming from the heavens to move Drake Nugent to DL. He was first-team all-state DL in HS, has the size (listed at 6'2" 284 and probably heavier now) and strength (state champ in discus), and I have my suspicions incoming frosh Drake Metcalf will take the C job sooner rather than later. We'd need to recruit another C though, stat.
