Clemson:

-Clemson's DL will be top 5 in the nation this year. Every person returns from a DL that lead the nation in TFLs last year, and it's loaded with juniors and seniors.

-Mackenzie Alexander, a freshman CB who was injured last year and had to redshirt, is apparently more than living up to the billing. They say he's the absolute truth and will start from day one.

-Offense will struggle from day one and likely throughout the season.

-At QB, depth is now razor thin with Kelly getting kicked off the team. Stoudt will be consistently average, but he could legit be pushed by Watson by season's end. By all accounts Watson is everything they'd hope he'd be.

-At RB, will likely be a dropoff from what we've had in the past with James Davis, CJ Spiller, Andre Ellington, and Hot Rod, but depth is real good here.

-At WR we're gonna see a HUGE dropoff from the Sammy/Nuk era. Artavis Scott, a true freshman jidderbug (think Devin Hester), has been real impressive but we don't have much experience and are really struggling for height and size (something we've really used well in our vertical attack lately).

-At OL, the entire OL looks very stout EXCEPT for the RT. This is probably our biggest question mark right now, and will be a huge weak spot from day one.

-Overall, Clemson's makeup is going to change almost overnight into a team that relies heavilly on their defense.

Is Roderick Byers on the roster for Clemson? I know Oregon had him until Clemson came in late.
