But there is a par level on every position and you can get away with robbing one position to pay for another. But we cant sign an additional 6 guys just to make sure. Plus you have to trust Orgeron on guys like Evans and the juco guy. They’re just frosh

Why not make this class about the trenches?
Dline:
Berry
Guillory
Roy
Lee
Wright
Some late bloomer or someone we didn’t see coming

Oline:
Ford
Jackson
Dumervil
Merriweather-Lewis
Van Pran
Possibly a TE like Parker that can develop into an OT

That’s 10-12 big guys. They are far more needed than any other position. Elite linemen will make your other skill position guys better.

3 WR’s
2 QB’s
1 RB
2 Safeties
2 CB’s
1 TE
3 LB’s

That’s a 25 man roster. If we keep Ford and land Dumervil then we can keep Jackson at Dline unless he just grades out better at OT. Either way, this class needs 9-11 big guys, with the majority being Dline and OT’s. We have OG’s for days and Van Pran can play C or OG. We need to focus on Dline and OT’s for this class.
