Joe C Strib blog has some Claeys stuff:
Claeys said Rallis provides key depth at all three linebacker spots, and Ekpe will be counted on to start at defensive tackle, alongside Steven Richardson.
Everett Williams and Cody Poock are both candidates to replace Wilson, and Jack Lynn could move back to the middle after starting at outside linebacker last year. Claeys said sophomore Jonathan Celestin's rapid development at outside linebacker would free up Lynn to move back to the middle,
at defensive end, Claeys mentioned Hank Ekpe. "He's really had a good offseason," Claeys said. "He's as good an athlete as we've got on our football team." And Gaelin Elmore "continues to get better," Claeys said. "I don't know how much weight he's put on, but his body's changing. I would imagine he'll stay around the 270 mark. For how well he's moving, we'll leave him at defensive end."
