re: Name your breakout player on offense and defense this year

Giles has a 69-1150-13 td season. Let’s hear the argument that he hasn’t broken out

I know man I can't keep my hating under control.

Giles will do great things here I have no doubt about it.

Dude I thought about putting Phillips over Delpit, too.
Just looking at our LBs gets me excited.

Offense will be the whole passing game, mostly the transfers: Burrow, Giles, and Moss should all be elite weapons for E to utilize in his new system.

As for a true breakout for a guy that was already here last year, I will say Jamal Pettigrew. He was recruited by E, is an elite athlete with outstanding size, and I believe TE and hybrids will be a big part of what E leans on in his system. There will be plenty of targets for Moreau, Moss, Pettigrew, and even Washington another guy that E recruited and is now a senior.


I also think Curry will be a beast in November, especially if our offense is geared to the passing game early on. Once teams adjust and start dropping more defenders out of the box, Curry will be ready to hammer them.



On defense, it’s hard to say Delpit will break out since he was already so good last year, but I see him making that Eric Reid type jump after his freshman year. He will be a superstar this year.

I’ll also put Harris here. He has real potential to be the playmaker we need that can roam and defend the run and the pass and also rush the passer.


I’m serious when I say I just really get a 2011 type feel from this roster. There are legitimate studs all over the field on defense and Burrow immediately brings it all together on offense. The so called brutal schedule sets up nicely for this to team to respond like champions the way the team did in 2011 if this coaching staff is up to the task.

Phillips and Brossette

Jefferswag 3.0 for O
Chaisson for D

CEH on offense
Delpit in defense... but Ray Thornton will turn some heads.

Keep in mind, I said you could argue this both ways...

I just think a WR coming from Big 12 to the SEC is like a high school kid going to college.

It's a completely different game. I'm not saying he won't be good, I'm just saying he has faced ZERO competition with regards to defensive backs. Some people may say "he needs to prove to me that he can be a 1000 yard receiver in the SEC". And that's a perfectly legit thing to say.

We all know the Big 12 is air raid offense with shitty DBs.

Burrow
Monroe
