[Kiwon]

Barring injury, the defense looks okay. But lots of questions about the Offense.

Do they have a durable RB capable of making something happen and pick up the blitz when necessary?

[Bretsky]

Short Term views

Upgrade at DL
Downgrade at RB
about the same elsewhere

Not enough weapons of offense
Hopefully the additional bodies will help our Special Teams
Hopefully the OL can hold off the pass rush on their own because we need to send every body out on pass routes that we can

RB Vernand Morency, Brandon Jackson, Noah Herron

I have a feeling that either Pope or Beach beats out Herron.

[BradStrand]

I think RB is definitely in better shape. Ahman was done two years ago, Im glad he got his paycheck and Im glad we have fresh legs coming in.

Pope should beat out Herron. He did some nice things for us last year but dude just doesnt have the talent.

I think if Underwood or Culver take Manuels spot they'd probably cut their losses with him and cut him from the team. No sense in keeping him over a younger player with an upside.

[BF4MVP]

Jackson will start over Morency..

[OS PA]

RB Vernand Morency, Brandon Jackson, Noah Herron

I have a feeling that either Pope or Beach beats out Herron.

I'm not sure, if anybody is going to beat out Herron I think it's Deshawn Wynn. He is the closest thing to a third down power back we have. Morency and Jackson are too much of the same back, and because of this the coaches will be looking for someone to power the ball on third and short and goal line situations. Look for Wynn here.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Got him penciled in as FB--since the Packers are going to try him there, I believe.

[KYPack]

Coston is the back-up center?

He's never played there, far as I know.

Maybe you are right. He can be just as bad a back-up center as he is a back-up guard or tackle.

The guy always plays lousy, but he still is young. He's the Ferg of the line.

Did I tell you how much it pains me to see that?

I thought he played a little OC in college. This wasn't meant to be an exact depth chart. Just a look at how the roster is shaping up, so I wouldn't get too hung up on who is listed where (e.g. Morency over Jackson at RB, Ferguson listed 3rd at WR, etc.).

Good point. Wynn can be that type of runner. But he has RB skills too. Urban Meyer spent two years giving different backs every opportunity to play ahead of Wynn........and no one was able to take his spot. And the Gators are loaded with talent. Wynn can go either way but the fresh start with the Packers may bring something out of him.

[wist43]

As someone said, better at DT; worse at RB; the same everywhere else.

TT really didn't do much to improve the team this year... despite the fact that he drafted a couple of decent players.

Big bunch of, "so what"...

Realistically, we have no chance to win much of anything this year... 7-9/8-8... woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!
