Donte Moncrief wore White around like a cheap shirt because White lacked the speed to keep up.
Rashard Robinson and Tre White are both very fast, matter of fact Robinson was one of the fastest track athletes in Florida last year (in the 100m).
White was beat because of his inexperience. Also, even the great Patrick Peterson gets beat on double moves and by perfectly executed passes.
It is not a lack of talent or athletic ability, but a lack of experience.
On Bain, I have heard the exact opposite.

If you include 3 wide sets than maybe but he was behind Bowe and Buster Davis till 2007.
To answer the earlier question based off this year Garrett and Willis should have every opportunity to earn a spot.
Fournette obviously. The WRs will compete. Maybe its just me but Jarvis seems to be the kinda guy whod come back for his senior year.
Hootie Jones Jamal Adams and Paris (if he wants early time) should all compete for a starting position.

I think a lot of these guys will see the field often and early, but I'm not sure many of them will ever be starters next year

Landry played special teams his freshman year. OBJ started over him. Landry played in games, but was never a starter at WR. OBJ was the slot guy his freshman year

You think he will beat out White and Robinson?

Fournette might start if Hilliard goes pro. I don't think Magee is the every-down back that Cameron likes to use. He's a good change-of-pace guy and would be a great complement to Fournette. I don't think Blue can get it done, if he's even coming back at all.
If Hilliard stays then I think we go to more of a back-by-committee approach; Hilliard and Magee will get most of the carries between them (like Hill and Magee have done this year), but the staff will work Fournette in.
I'll be surprised if Fournette isn't starting by the end of the season though. Magee as change-of-pace, Hilliard to spell Fournette as a power back, and Palelei gets sprinkled in some as well where we can.
More thoughts later but that's how I see the RB rotation going. Needless to say I think Fournette is talented enough to start day one and I'll be pleasantly -- but not overly -- surprised if he gets the starting job right off the bat.

Jalen Mills last year. If we're talking RS FR then Montgomery and Jerald Hawkins would count.

I would bet you that Garrett will not start. It would surprise me. I bet Welter starts.

The wide receivers after Beckham and Landry have not impressed at all. Kadron Boone is the only one who has double-digit catches on the year, and he's a senior... hell, Dural and Leslie are the only ones who have any catches at all of the WRs who will be back next year -- Leslie has one for 11 yards, Dural 6 for 96 and a TD.
Scholarship WRs next year rated at least 4* on 247 composite:
John Diarse (2013)
Avery Peterson (2013)
Quantavius Leslie (2013)
Unless the staff is redshirting Diarse and Peterson, our group of WRs is really underachieving compared to their potential. Bringing in 5* studs like Dupre, Noil and Quinn will at the very least push them to perform, if it doesn't outright get them to start.
Summary: WRs will be really young next year, and none of them have had breakout performances despite having a huge opportunity to step up and become the #3 receiving threat behind the best WR tandem in the country. There's a lot of opportunity there for new guys to come in and do well.

Can't blame the WRs when the QB only looks at 2 guys to throw the ball to...you can make the same argument for the TEs, who receive zero attention.
