Was coming to post the same thing

This one is definitely my biggest one because the two have exact opposite meanings
quote:

Hopefully not Savannah


While geography may keep it somewhat limited, the port down there is primed to boom in the next couple decades.

Dredging the river for bigger ships already -- plus the Panama Canal adding deeper locks means more ships at east coast ports so Savannah should reap some huge benefits there

Agreed pretty much across the board.

It's worth pointing out that Michael Barnett got a lot of PT last year and should figure into the DL rotation somewhere. I also think Ridley will at least start the season as the opposite WR starter -- but they rotate so much it doesn't really matter.

Really glad to see this guy is moving on. Big time X factor for them

Baker coming back would definitely make things a lot better there.

C- Baker (if he stays), Speed/Webb, Poole

SS - Reed, J. Wilson, Gibbs (no idea whats up with him)

FS - LeCounte, Bishop

C- McGhee, Poole, Stokes (Campbell could make a play here)

STAR- Gibbs? Bishop? This will be an interesting one.


A lot of talented young guys but their lack of PT this year makes me nervous -- Speed, Webb, Poole, Bishop, Stokes, etc.
quote:

I can see Pittman having Galliard adding on some solid pounds to his frame and getting stronger this offseason.



If he gains some good weight he will be big for us next year. We are going to need some senior leadership on the OL next year with all the young guys we'll potentially have out there.
Don't think I can disagree with anything on there really.

I'm interested to see if a few Freshman can grab jobs -- I think Salyer may get the LG spot and I'm interested in seeing how Tindall does at ILB.

Oh and also -- Lester Cotton, Bama's one of Bama's starting guards, is not expected to play.

What happened to Charlie? Don’t remember seeing him down.

We'll see, but I'm guessing if he was on crutches on Monday he'll have a tough time getting back in a week. Hope he can go.

Who else is hurt for this game?


For us, I think Charlie Woerner is gonna be out. And Natrez is out, of course.
Luckily we have Reggie Carter as the next man up, who is probably a little more skilled in pass coverage than Patrick. I think he would have gotten a lot of time anyway against Oklahoma.

Also, as someone else mentioned, a little more PT for Monty Rice is a good thing
Looks like he's the leader in the clubhouse...

I'll say that he'll probably be an asset recruiting South GA. Maybe he can get his mojo back
Don't Rumph and Rocker both coach DL though?
quote:

Auburn adjusted after our line looked like world beaters on the first drive


We had good pass protection on the first drive but that's it. Didn't run the ball all game and that's where we have lived all year.

Not saying this line isn't capable, but they are going to struggle if we try and line it up and run right at them. I certainly agree we have to put them in the position to be successful -- which isnt running into the teeth of elite DT's against our Guards and Centers. Gonna need to be more creative in a few weeks.
We have...

A converted guard playing LT

A converted tackle playing LG

A converted DT playing C

A Redshirt Freshman at RG

A True Freshman at RT (going against the NCAA sack leader)

Auburn has an elite DL. We struggled.

Help is on the way. I'm honestly really impressed that this OL has been able to produce all year with the patchwork Pittman has put together. They are going to struggle when they go big on big. It is what it is -- we are going to have to try and scheme around it for the SEC Championship for sure.

quote:

My hope is in 2018 we have a lineup of Comargo, Swanson, Albies with Rodriguez being the super utility.


I'd be good with that for sure. Not a lot of power at the plate but very solid. Hopefully Acuna could absolve some of that.
quote:

Does Camargo really need to play every day? Certainly not at the expense of Swanson imo.


Generally I'd say no, but I do understand wanting to get a little more feel for him in a lost year to see what you have. The best situation is getting rid of Phillips and doing both.

Totally agree with you on the rest.



Speaking of Camargo, obviously he has been impressive and has made the most of his call up to the bigs. From what I understand, he has gained some good weight and has really improved his approach at the plate -- defensively he's always been really good.

Does anyone think he can sustain? I like the idea of having him around and I think he's a better short term option than a Rio Ruiz type at 3B....but...there's also a logjam of sorts of utility infield guys that are either vets like Sean Rodriguez, or young talents like Albies, Camargo, Swanson, Ruiz, etc.

Not a bad problem to have I suppose.
I'm pretty sure Auburn is the biggest threat for Jackson right now.

He is trying to sell the ole "package deal" thing with Fields, but those never really pan out. Definitely get the feeling he is a dawg lean
