QB1
TE
WR
DE
LB

Are all glaring needs imo.

Then, add in depth pieces you’ll need at OL, DT, and safety and you have a 8-11 portal class.

Tightend will be a depth piece can almost guarantee Lofton will be the starter again. Wr will be older depth piece 2 or 3 type guy. DE will only be a nfl type guy. Linebacker is borderline glaring need tho

QB - 1 (QB1)
WR - 1 (vet to replace Daniels/Marion)
OL - 2 (debating whether we need a starting center but will lean yes)
TE - 1 (vet to replace Bauman)
K - 1

DE - 2 (1 starter and 1 high rotation)
DT - 1 (assuming Moten stays; we'd need 2 otherwise)
LB - 2 (replacing Toure and Wes)
CB - 1 (nickel to replace Scott)
S - 1 (number 3 safety behind Poyser and Fitzgerald)

I think it'll be around 12-13.

QB - Yes.
WR - 4 TF, and a few Sophmores who had a ton of snaps that had success and show talent. I doubt they bring a WR in.
TE - Yes.
K - Yes.
OL - Don’t think they’ll bring anyone in. Like WR, young guys who have talent and showed talent when given the chance.
DE - Same as WR and OL.
DT - If they don’t get the Simpson situation cleared up, you’ll need 2. Jones’ development has stalled out.
CB - Same as DE, WR, and OL.
S - Need someone to replace Thomas and his physicality. If they determine that is Poyser, then you don’t need anyone here.

Winning this Championship supersedes portal acquisitions.

I know they can do both and that’s why they have a large staff that handles different tasks.

Obviously the visitors wont get the same time and attention from the coaches this week like from teams that are out of the playoff......but thats okay and any resonable visitor should understand that.
 
I wanted to discuss LB separately.

+ Aguirre has really come along with Heatherman’s coaching.
+ Another guy who I expect to make a big jump is Wiley in the Spring.
+ Bonner is another guy the staff is expecting a big jump from after a year in the program.

That’s two guys who can give you starter snaps and a third guy off the bench.

The results on the field have gained them the benefit of the doubt but I find not taking any LBs because of the current guys we have on the roster as optimistic.

A lot of youth and athleticism mentored by great coaching.

What is there not to like?

Sure, and again they more than deserve the benefit of the doubt but I haven’t seen it translate on the field with those particular players. This is counting on jumps to be made.
