Pre spring lineup (top 40 guys who will play) is just insane.....

I feel pretty good that our OL will be Meriweather, McCoy, Buchanan, Samson and Cantwell. Hopefully, 4 games can solidify them before Clemson. I have already spent to much time mix and matching this lineup. I would have Rodriguez and Wilkinson or maybe Cline as the primary backups. I really fear a QB injury #1, it's over. OL injury #2, it's big trouble. I pray another TF OL besides Cantwell is unique in being ready if needed.
 
Out of curiosity...

Do any of these new WR's give us a deep threat? I'm not really that familiar with them.

I don't know if this OL unit will be able to impose their will on opponents like we did this season, but if not, I think the ability of Mensah can offset that a bit. Not only through the air but also in the QB run/option game.

From what I've seen, Jacobs is a legitimate deep threat. Waiting to see Wingo against college corners.
 
Believe Blount has said he wants to move inside. Not sure he adds enough weight to make the fulltime switch but he will play dt a lot.

True... I see from vaughn - looks physical and great hands with quick feet, attacks the ball aggressively with his hands when he wants, but not the burners like jacobs as U stated.


Good question to ponder about that coach macho asked.

Vandrevious Jacobs is definitely a deep threat.

Coach,

No x’s & O’s guy, but with the addition’s in the Wr core, maybe we won’t have to be as imposing of a OL because defenses will have to play us differently…

****, maybe I’m out to lunch

Left tackle is either going to be McCoy or the kid from Georgia. Samson is a guard here and a good one.

Def a good piece on the oline that showed good work at guard. What gets me thinking is the fact we know oline a question mark but mirabol loves to move olineman around to sharpen their skills.
