2016 Mid-Season Grades: Defense

DEFENSIVE LINE: A

Maybe I’m grading harshly here, but despite being one of the best defensive lines in the country, it hasn’t been as outstanding of a season as it could have been so far. Players have battled injuries (Taco Charlton, Bryan Mone) and the backups performed admirably. Charlton has only played in four games and averages 1 sack per game, but I think Michigan still lacks that one dominant edge rusher. They make up for it with an array of talent and blitzes, but quarterback scrambles hurt them in the first few games of the year. Defensive linemen have combined for 30.5 tackles for loss and 15 sacks, but the lack of one truly dominant player prevents me from giving them a perfect grade.
