Made this list based on what I’ve been reading.. not an insider by any means.
Honestly don’t know what’s happening at QB, McLaughlin seems to be the best shot at this point. Would love to see Milroe, could depend on how the season goes with King.

Tristan Leigh is a bit of a reach but so far I like Justice as a recruiter.

WRs are predicated on how our offense performs this season. Would love to see Jacorey Brooks in there if things go right.

Not sure if Collins sticks but with recent news (brashard smith decommit, recent transfers) who knows. Given what I’ve read about Leonard Taylor in the past, I think a good season could give him something to think about. Seems like a cane fan, might just need a reason. If we ball out, think we can put a dent in the Palmetto-Hova-UF bs

I like Chase Smith on defense at LB but I know theres a difference in opinion. Hope we grab him in the end regardless

The numbers might be off, we could only be taking 23 this cycle. Would love some clarification on that.

What y’all think?

Numbers can be anywhere between 23-25 depending on what we do with Moise, Williams, and Walker. I dont think we will sign Chamon Metayer. And Hammett is being recruited to play LB not DE. Also Borregalas will be a signee.

forgot about borregales.. made the edits
 
Yul wouldn’t be a take in that class. Ivins said that he believes Yul is behind Jaden for the slot spot which also makes me think we’re taking only 3 WR’s

I would hold off on Hammett not being a DE. These kids grow and he was definitely 6’3.
 
Definitely don't see Metayer or Collins but hope I'm wrong about Savion. I think we'll take only 3 wideouts unless romello & brooks both wanted in somehow. Definitely like smith as a linebacker & taking only 1 safety is good decision IMO. Gonna be interesting to see what qb Lashlee lands. I'll give the 2021 class 24 spots as moise likely counts towards 2021 class. Wait & see mode with Williams/Walker.
 
If Metayer wants to play DE then he will be in this class. If not, then he will be "dropped". Also, I don't think Collins sticks either. Are we really in contention for Leigh? I think we take 2 rb's and either 3 WR or 3 LB.

-I don’t think we sign that QB.
-We have to take another RB IMO.
-I think we take 4 WR’s
-I think another DE is very possible(their is potential to lose 3, 2 for sure), especially if Hammett starts as OLB.
-need better CB’s imo
Agree, I dont see them taking another RB unless he is exceptional, and that CB class is not good. The CBs should be 3 out of 4 of Knowles, Burns, Cooper, or Brown.

3 WR sounds about right especially since we took 4 last cycle and only lose 1 after 2020. OL, CB, LB are the priorities.

Don’t see 4 wrs. Only losing Harley from the group. 3 will make 10 on the roster for 2021. Probably will need 3 DTs with only having 4 after this year. A 2nd rb might be a candidate for that spot too or another cb.
