You know what I love about the defense? A lot of guys who started last year on the 2nd team. That's competition & infusion of talent. Love Reese winning the RT job as well as D Will winning LG. Good sings. Alec Murphy running 2nd team to start probably doesn't hold but that's a good sign he worked his ass off. Probably a reward. This will change a lot but I like so far.

Do you think that paves the way for Kylin to be 2nd team?

I am excited for this year so don't get me wrong but if we can just get some OL/WR/DB/K help for next year we might see 10 wins again with the way that depth chart looks.

Unless we have an injury, I'll be disappointed if we play Kylin this year. I'd much rather redshirt him than try to get him 20-30 carries this year. Aerie, Gibson, Lee, and Murphy can easily carry the RB load for us.
-
Interesting one of the DL spots is called DT, I wonder what technique they will play. Could go 4I to try & get Simmons more 1-on-1s, w/ Rivers lining up a wide 5. Is that a product of trying to get Cory Thomas on the field or a signature of Grantham's base D?
That's some serious length at corner. Peters, Dantzler, Cole & Williams all 6'2. Where is Smitherman playing? I know he's mentioned being coached by English but seems like he was made for nickel corner.

Murphy at 2nd team RB is pretty shocking to me
-
Remember this depth chart is based off of like 30min of practice.

don't know how he run's the football,but he looks like a mack truck

Has anyone seen our new kickers attempt a Field Goal? or extra point? Man, it would be a game changer to have a kicker who can be counted on from 40 yds and in. Not asking for Morten Andersen, just a decent college kicker

Don't read anything into this .. he isn't 2nd or 3rd team.

We wont know this answer until September. Our kicker has never played in a college football game

Alec Murphy can run.

I feel pretty confident that RB is not a position of concern
-
Mullen gonna pull the SR bullshit at corner. Dantzler and Peters are the best 2 and should get as many snaps as possible. If lashard durr and cleveland start over those 2.......

Probably gonna play Sweat as more of a stand up DE on Thomas's side. Thats what I would guess. Thats more of a gameplan thing anyway

Still don't understand Cleveland getting the nod there. Peters is far and away our best Corner and Dantzler looked really promising in the spring game.

That's what I was thinking too. I'm always excited about the season but NEXT year could be yuge!

Some have held he'd be buried on the depth chart because of a dust up he had several years ago, but it's hard to not want to put a 230 lb+ Mac truck on the field. I think he's going to see reps this year. It's dumb to not combo him with Fitz back there given his size.
-
Kobe, Abrams, Fletch, Jung, Dantzler, Peters, Gray, Gay, etc.... coming off the bench? That's sick.
