re: Depth Chart

Mett starts, jj will be the wildcat qb. Ego and brockers prolly start at dt. Downs, Logan, and and freak are in the rotation. Davenport moves to oline.

Jernigan will also push for some PT next year. I do think downs starts though, he's not as bad as some think. When he came out of high school the big plus with his was his motor, so I'm thinking maybe the extra weight he's added might be tiring him during games.

If he improves his conditioning he'll be just fine.

yup

Is it just me or does it seem Shep is kind of a waste of talent on the field. His route-running and hands are both suspect as a WR. And we dont work him into the running game very often. I cant believe he's on the field just about every play for his blocking skills.

I would much rather see Randle, Landry, and Boone out there...true wide receivers.

I expect Matheiu to start opposite Claiborne

Mathieu can do what he does best @ nickel, I dont think they will change his role too much.

WR 3/Slot: R. Shepard/J. Landry/OBJ

Jarvis is light years ahead of Shep as a receiver. It's just a question of how we will use Shep next year. Landry needs to start in some capacity no matter what

My fearless predictions.....

QB: Jefferson, Mettenberger (hopefully makes move to starter mid season if not sooner), Lee

WR: Randle, James Wright, OBJ
WR2: Boone, Fobbs, C toliver, Armand Williams
Slot: Shep, Jarvis

RB: Ridley (I think he leaves),Ware & Ford (split Carries as starters), Hilliard or Hill gets a crack at mop up work, the other red shirts along w mggee

FB: Worle/Stampley (split duties), Theriot

TE: Deangelo (passing situations), Clement (starts in blocking situations), Joseph, *Travis Dickson could push all those guys for time

RT: Hurst, La'El, Shaw, Nick Jacobs?
RG: Blackwell, T-Bob
C: Lonergan, T-Bob
LG: Dworacyk, Williford, Branch
LT: Faulk, Washington, Fordham?

DEFENSE

DE1: Adams, Mingo, Aghayere, *Rasco*Drew*Clowney
DT1: Downs, Ego, Davenport, Bennie Logan
DT2: Brockers, JC Copeland, Freak, *jernigan
DE2: Sam Montgomery, Lavar Edwards, Jordan Allen

WLB: Francois, Tahj Jones, Luke Muncie
MLB: Minter, DJ Welter, Maclin
SLB: Baker, Lamin Barrow, Maclin

*Insert Blue somewhere in there at LB, I think he get's moved, Also Trevon Randle or *CJ Johnson could see some action. And Josh Johns turning heads at LB???

SS: Brandon Taylor, Reid, Vinson
FS: Loston (i hope), Reid, Hatcher, Sam Gibson
CB1: Claiborne, Ron Brooks
CB2: Tharold Simon, Calhoun, Jenkins?
Nickel: Matheiu

Also given all the ATHs we've picked up this year it'll be very interesting to see what evolves and where they play. It seems CLM has gotten much better about playing the best man and between Turner, Eugene, Collins, Martin, or Lewis I could see one of them blowing up and becoming the next Trex in the secondary or one of the Chiefs patented small LBers, similar to an Ali Highsmith BALL HAWK.


KR/PR: Gore
I dont know anything about the kickers.

I think this will be a huge toss up as to who starts here. I'd imagine that Brockers, Freak, Ego and Downs all have a shot at PT

---

My guess is we will still have a 4 man rotation. Im very interested to see who gets the most pt out of this group.

Oh and i hate to burst anyones bubble but all indications point to calhoun going back to GA for personal reasons.

Side note: I think Loston is in the running with Shep for being the most overrated recruits on the team not named Davenport.

He's a redshirt freshman and he gets playing time.
