We continue our 2015 Virginia Tech football preview by kicking off our defensive position-by-position preview with a look at the Hokies' talented defensive ends. Charley Wiles may have the best starting duo of defensive ends in college football with Dadi Nicolas and Ken Ekanem while the depth is improving with Seth Dooley and Vincent Mihota.
One player that will not be included on our depth chart is Trevon Hill who tore his ACL this past spring, and will be redshirting this fall. Hill would have been a contender to make the two-deep at the defensive end spot, but will have to wait a year to get playing time.
For our depth chart, we will also not do to separate defensive end spots, but instead have one list so each duo will be a different string (top 2 are first string, next 2 are second string, etc), since there isn't much of a difference between the left and right side defensive end.
Early Fall DE Depth Chart
- Dadi Nicolas
- Ken Ekanem
- Seth Dooley
- Vincent Mihota
- Darius Fullwood
- Houshun Gaines
