If Floyd can somehow manage 12 sacks (that seems like a lot) then the Rams would ONLY need a combined 11 from Ebukam and Obo (which also seems like a lot).
I don't think it's so linear where you need a certain number of sacks. They will likely generate sacks differently this year.
Here's what I expect. The run D will be more dominant with 3 great run stoppers starting on the DL and our secondary should be near elite. These two things mean that teams will be put in a lot of 3rd and long situations. That in turn means we'll know they're passing, should be able to bring combined pressure from various sources and should get a good amount of coverage sacks.
The 3 major components of a good D:
Coverage
Pressure
run D
Being very good in 2 of those will greatly help alleviate any weakness in the 3rd.
