Under the radar true freshmen that could contribute

What sort of under-the-radar true freshmen can you see making some significant contributions this year?
I can see Drake Davis making an impact. We've heard a lot about the other two true FR WRs, Anderson and Sullivan, but Drake may be the best of the bunch. With the losses of Quinn and Diarse, there is a chance for all of these FR to play.
Also, I know the numbers aren't in his favor, but I've had a very good feeling about Greedy since he committed. He's not the most highly touted CB out there (like Saivion and Kristian), but I just have a gut feeling we'll hear his name this year, maybe on special teams.

Devin white is "expected" to contribute every game at LB. love Dee Anderson but will probably never see him. Hope to see Saivion get some time at safety. But Special Teams will be really improved. It will be exciting to see these highly touted freshman playing hard to prove themselves, such as Michael divinity too. Especially with how many great additions we got this year.

I don't even know the over the radar freshman who could contribute.

Sci Martin as pure pass rusher could see the field. Coach O said he's 245 lbs now.

I think Savion Smith will see the field more than people think.
Obviously Toliver, Jackson and White are our nickle package guyus, but I think Smith will get in there on dime packabes.
Which is good because Dwyane Thomas needs to not see the field.

Probably the best WR class we signed the past 4 years. Expect Anderson and Davis to get some touches

Drake Davis and Andre Anthony (if he gets cleared to play soon)

Conner Culp might be our starting placekicker.
Glen Logan could work his way into the rotation at defensive end and Rahssan Thornton will see the field in some capacity I'd bet.

I think all the freshman this year qualify as being on the radar. So many studs who could contribute right away.

Don't sleep on Rahssan Thornton

Les seems to love playing true freshman but i think it was due to so many upperclassmen leaving early for the draft. It will be interesting to see what true freshman crack the rotation with us having depth for the first time in like 4 years.

Outside the expected contributors.... Sci Martin ( he maybe expected at this point) coming off the edge in situations.
Always seems to be a TE that plays quite a bit as a freshman so Ill go with Pettigrew..

Donavaughn Campbell (I think he becomes a starter at OG by middle of season)
Glen Logan
Rahssan Thornton
Andre Anthony
And Greedy might not be as polished as Fulton or as ready day 1 from a physical standpoint as Saivion Smith is. But his potential and natural ability is just as high as those guys. Might not see the field as early as those 2, but when he figures it out he has the chance to be a very very good CB.
Also was very impressed with Dee Anderson in the spring. Kid can flat out play and looks the part. Could be the heir to the WR1 position in the future.
