Two "under the radar" guys that I think will have big years.

Deangelo Peterson
Akiem Hicks


I would add Dominique Allen, but after those pics were posted, he's not so "under the radar".

I think if we run a lot of spread sets then Peterson will get a lot of chances to make plays. He may have a break out year.

Bastrop's DL Josh Downs can flat-out play. He'll be tough to redshirt (but I hope he does!).

How can you put Hicks on there when there's basically no film on him anywhere?

If you want to choose an unknown DL, then it's definitely Lavar Edwards. Dude looked like a freak in that practice videos.

I agree with Josh Downs, don't see a lot of talk about him, but I have always thought he would have an immediate impact.

My guess is a hybrid TE/WR, but mainly at TE on passing downs.

H-back? I pretty much agree with you, and that's why I think he might not have a "big" year, just because he will be between positions with three guys in front of him at WR and Dickson playing the majority of snaps at TE. He is a beast though and I hope he does really well this year.

With Dickson, I don't see Peterson getting too much action at TE. However, if after the first few games no one seems to be stepping up to the #2 or #3 receiver spot, I could definitely see Peterson taking over one of the roles periodically.

Ron Brooks and Kelvin Sheppard are the two I expect to break out this year.
