ndomer4 532 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Offense Kramer- He's our top rated recruit we have, he needs to step in and dominate for this unit. Balis will make him a beast. Wimbush- could be our best qb in awhile, stay healthy! Sanders- Think Long will use him unlike the last two seasons Defence Bilal- The rover, love his skill set Hayes- the pass rusher we need to emerge. Love- I like this guy to be our nickel with Watkins and Crawford back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closest build to Jaylon Smith on the roster. I also think he will handle Rover quite well. I compare Rover to the DOG Linebacker position in Diaco' 3-4. It will be interesting if he can stay on the field for 3rd down, or whether Tranquill gets 1/3rd of the snaps there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo 405 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Offense: McGlinchey: Will he turn into the dominant force we have been waiting for? Dexter Williams: Is this the year he breaks out? Javon McKinley: He's been pretty quiet so far in his ND career. Defense: With the hot mess the defense has been the past several seasons, it has had to have a negative effect on the development/play of the players. Tillery: Can he turn into a dominant, disruptive force on the D-Line? Hayes: Hopefully he is completely over his injuries and will show elite pass rushing skills. Crawford: Is he back to 100%?

coltssb 1,125 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I think Kelly is pretty easy to read. He likes to play his guys and guys who know his playbook. So for offense Sanders-will be our leading receiver. He'll also be Wimbush's checkdown guy. Mcglinchey-like all the other o-lineman that stayed under Hiestand will hold his own. Meaning, not dominant in the run game but won't give up many if any sacks this year. Williams - our backs seem to not be very productive in their years when they are eligible to come out. Almost like hey need that 4th year to be successful in Kelly's system. But you know who shines? The backup. Williams will pick up the load and the slack this year. Defense Bilal- just has stud written all over him. Not much more needed to say. Watkins- will have a quiet but successful year. Nothing great but will not be the corner torched this year. Another safe pick- Trumbetti. He'll be a solid contributor and a guy we will need down the line. I was going to go with Tillery but I think he needs one more year.

Jackie Chiles 0 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Unfortunately I see a lot of turnovers in Wimbushs' career if he continues to hold the ball like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaithInIrish Forever 5,570 Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 I am hoping for a Deshaun Watson 2.1 The cool thing is he has those Tools He can make a linebacker miss in the hole like a Running Back. Also some experts say he had the strongest arm in his 2014 recruiting class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaithInIrish Forever 5,570 Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 I just feel like if he were that good he woulda seen the field Possibly but Kelly was taking the stick to your class year thing for awhile to avoid transfers and promote stability. He let Kizer jump Malik and we lost both. I think this offense will be simpler too they want to go fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
