QB- we have more talent at QB regardless of which one starts.
OL- our OL coach is a stud and we have 3 returning starters in Brumfield, Ingram, and Charles. We also add the number 1 Juco OT.
Not to mention, this group can’t do any worse than last year so it should definitely improve.
WR- we signed two 5 stars and actually have a WR coach regardless of his age. We also have plenty ofvreturning talent.
DL- we replace Lac and Gilmore who were serviceable but not great with Alexander and Fehoko. Plus we still have Lawrence. This group is a MAJOR upgrade.
ILB- we still have white and he’s another year smarter and better. Plus Taylor or Phillips will be a massive upgrade over Donnie Alexander. At times playing with 10 guys would have been better than having Donnie out there.
Safety- Delpit will be improved after a year of experience. Battle, Monroe, or Stevens will play the other spot and all 3 are pretty good with Stevens having the potential to be great. Their new Safeties coach will help develop them as well.
That’s 6 position groups where we will be better in 2018 than we were in 2017. The only spots where we take a step back are RB, OLB, and CB. Those groups aren’t devoid of talent either, they are just replacing extremely talented players.

And the 2 4 star guys we signed were also ESPN 300 players
Also have to consider Giles will be eligible
I think it's extremely likely that this group will be better than last year

Every upgrade you've noted is addition by subtraction. Basically, you hope the new players will be better, but don't actually know.

I think The DL will be better if they stay healthy. I’ll take Alexander and Fehoko over Lacouture and Gilmore even though I think The latter were underrated.
LBs should be good. White will progress another year. Taylor should be really good year 2, and Philips should push too.
I think chaisson uear 2 will play better than Key working back into shape.
If Fulton plays and is as good as we hope, CBS should be good. If either goes down it gets scary.
