this season / next
QB B / A-
RB C / B
Receiving C / B
O line C / B
D line C / C
LB A- / B
Secondary A / B

Bottom line - much better offense, slightly weaker defense.

I'm assuming you think 2 or 3 of the DL go pro? Because how would the QB and WR improve with no new faces but the DL doesn't?

I’d imagine a D- line upgrade assuming they all stay along with Shelvin and Alexander They seem to be getting involved more. I don’t expect too much of a DB drop off. Kelvin Joseph and Fulton have a year under their belt. Stingley will be a great contribution.

I think our defense could be just as good if Lawrence stays. Shelvin is finally starting to buy in and had made some good plays. I think Queen will be a monster. Delpit is back. Stingley will step in and be good. Chaisson back. I think we can make some noise with our weak schedule.

As much as I HATE to see White go, I think Phillips will do awesome filling his spot after the season he had. Might see a little drop off in the beginning though

Yeah, I'm thinking we lose a DL or two. Graded QB on last 6 games. I'm actually thinking next year he will start even better than he finished this year, and hoping for at least a 50% reduction in drops.

QB and WR improve with a year of experience. Burrow had zero meaningful snaps before this year. None of,the returning receivers had 15 catches.

I certainly do not spect two of,three DL to leave. Fulton will,stay. Stingley will,step in

Chaisson back Jacoby Stevens. We are going to be slightly better on defense.

We will,be a lot better on offense

Are we even certain Fulton is staying?

We aren't certain but it would absolutely shock me if he left. He would go undrafted.

I don’t know why Fulton would leave. Could make himself millions more next year if he performs at the level he did in a limited sample size this year.

Way off on dline. Against the run we were elite. Granted we were lacking in the pass rush category

Defensive line was a solid B+. Ask Georgia. We were very difficult to run against

We blitzed at least 2 every play. Our success in the run was not fully based on DL play.

This year, B-
Next year B-

Chaisson & Fehoko come back
Shelvin, Alexander & Livingston all improve, allowing Fehoko to play his natural position.
If Lawrence comes back, solid B.

we were mediocre against the run for a top teir sec team that is. Our coverage was pretty elite though inconsistent and our pass rush was pretty mediocre. Don't see a major improvement with same staff and players but it just takes 2 or 3 guys on the DL to step up and dominate to make a huge difference.

This year/ next year:
Qb:C / B
RB C/ B
Receiving: C-/ B
Online: C- / ? Has to improve more experience less injuries.
Lb: A / B- devin white is irreplaceable but queen looked good outside of UF, plus new guys in the mix and more experience. We will still be solid.
Db: A /B- ? Do we lose more early? We always have talent, but we will see here.
Field goal kicker A+/ ?
