Looks like we are gonna be absolutely loaded with the guys we have returning. What is your guess as to what the starting lineup will look like?

Just depends. Let's wait until after NSD. Because Sospher will be a big deal if we can sign him.

I would love to see Fehoko go back to DE opposite of Lawrence and have Sospher in the middle with shelvin. Would be a deadly front. Also if we can get D White back, lord watch out

Studs all over the field...with more studs backing them up. We are going to be very good next season. Can't wait!

CB-Fulton
CB-Stingley
CB-Vincent
S-Delpit
S-Harris
LB-Phillips
MLB-Queen or White(if he returns)
OLB-Divinity
DE-Lawrence
NT-Shelvin
DE-Fehoko

EDIT: I TOTALLY FORGOT CHAISSON!!! That's probably our "base" package and then various schemes of 3-3-5 or 2-4-5 etc would add or remove players.

Then you've also got Stevens, Chaisson, Logan, etc. Gonna be a fantastic bunch.

I believe that will be the nickle defense. For base 3-4, just exchange Vincent with Chaisson.

Im guilty. I forgot... man this defense is gonna be aggressive/attacking but in a controlled sense. Theres power to push, but speed to recover if need be... wow!

Defense is fricking stacked is all I can tell ya. This is without the possibility of Sopsher and Devin too right now.

Just need the offense to match it haha. My question is if the hiring(s) will take some time or if they should be pretty quick? Wondering if they wait, might be someone in NFL.

It's rare for a freshman D-lineman to make an immediate impact. RB? Yes. D-lineman - rarely.

With Lawrence coming back, that is doubtful, but he could probably be in the 2-deep and stil see a LOT of playing time.

I hope Shelvin can continue to improve and play more minutes. If we can get someone to stuff that middle, then, boys, we are gonna be 2011 salty on D.

No, they really don't. They think that he is a freakish athlete for his size, but someone who needs lots of coaching to improve his technique before he is anywhere ready to start.

Nah, mention sophser doesn’t start and needs work on this board.. and you get downvoted immediately. People see a 5 star rating and think he will come in a contribute immediately

We’re gonna be deep too especially at the LB position. We don’t rebuild on defense, we just reload
