Virginia Tech's defensive staff brought in Duke transfer Aeneas Peebles this offseason to bolster a defense which was already on top of the ACC. Virginia Tech has so much star talent already on this side of the ball: Dorian Strong, Mansoor Delane, Antwaun Powell-Ryland, Keonta Jenkins, and the list goes on. Just like the offense, this defense has a chance to look much better than they did last year, and possibly become a top-10 defense in the country if all goes right.
The one that makes the most sense for me as a day one starter is Josh Fuga. Fuga has started at least three games in every one of the past three seasons, and had starting duties in four games last season. He's especially string in run defense, recording 5.5 tackles for loss in his career at Tech. Josh seems like the safe option to fill up the defensive line, as he's entering his fifth year in Blacksburg, and he's already gained trust of the coaches.
Unlike any other position, defensive tackle is a position where if you're strong, you're going to play. Brent Pry seems very excited about Copeland, and could plug him into the starting lineup.
