BEAM, Circuit Judge.

After a jury trial, Terrell Washington, Willie Chavez Blackstone, and William Rice, a/k/a “Touche,” were convicted of various conspiracy and drug-related charges. On appeal, all three defendants challenge the district court’s1 determination of their offense level under the Sentencing Guidelines.
