not bad, I would change a couple things:

Leslie will start with Landry if he is half as good as his hype on the RB. Smith may be starting at TE. Herron might be our #3DE this year unless we get Nkimdiche. I think Herron will become a damn good DT for us though as he gets bigger. I think K. Alexander will start over Debo. Eugene will be #2 FS

That's only if Lacoutre, Gilmore, Bain, or Lawson don't progress in their development. All 4 are currently around the right size. Plus each of them has big potential. I expect at least 2 of them to be solid contributors next year. LaCoutere is an early enrolee, he'll have a head start. Plus the reports about Quentin Thomas are positive, he should be ready next year as well.

Dural is behind Landry and Leslie will jump Boone and Wright if he gets here. (IMO we should start Dural and Leslie and have Landry as slot)

Smith starts by SEC play at TE if our blocking is adequate(O line should be a monster next year).

Alexander plays a lot and possibly jumps Jones at some point.

Willis hopefully comes here and gives us a legit backup.

Think Brazil becomes KR

Thomas is like 6 3 294. Coaches seem to think hes ready and im not going to disagree with that.

Yeah dude, we all know where a guy who hasnt finished high school his going to end up playing in 2-3 years.

They guy is either going to play de or lb. Its really up to coaches.

Im going to say DE, but nobody knows for sure.

Yep. He's supposed to be very athletic for his size. Similar to Bennie Logan, who also blew up his RS sophomore year after barely playing the year before. I'm hoping for something similar

The only thing is that I think Jennings will end up above Rettig on the depth chart. From what I can see from the (admittedly limited) publicly available film on the two of them, Jennings seems to be more accurate and make better decisions than Rettig does.

Then again, I hear Rettig doesn't have much talent around him, so it may just be a case of him carrying the offense.

Edit: Wow, it's been a little while since I checked, but there are now a good number of Rettig's complete games on YouTube. Should prove an interesting watch if we have time.

Unproven in the depth department, but not too shabby. Could surprise some folks.

There will be competition there. All will play and I think that at times there will be 4 lb's in in a 3-4 set to try and give the O something else to look at.
