We never signed top tier guys at those spots except for maybe 6 in 20 years
Hall, Harris, Fuller, Jones, Wilson, and Williams were the only top 100 guys we signed at those 3 positions since recruiting rankings became a thing in 99. DE in particular we pretty much bust with every 4-star we sign except for Ken Ekanem and what looks like Garbutt.
Under Fuente we actually do a better job recruiting highly rated talent at DE and DB than we did under Beamer. There's plenty of guys on the current roster that were highly rated. On the other hand here's a list of DBs that were ranked sub-400 (aka 3 stars) under Beamer
Williams, Flowers, Virgil, Carmichael, Chancellor, Porch, Facyson, Stroman, the other Fullers, Whitley, Exum, Bonner, and many more.
