    Spring Game thoughts

    We are going to be pretty good on defense folks dont let anyone fool you, we've got depth on the DL and at LB. Our safeties are NFL type players and our corners looked better than what I expected and from what I've seen and heard this spring they are much improved. Still gotta prove it on Sept. 3 but very promising. I cant wait to see us turn the dogs loose on D. We wont have to be as good offensively if the D can hold it down. You could really start to see Jonathan Calvin and Will Coleman figure it out down the stretch last year they are gonna give us production and depth on the DL. Our front 7 can play with and stop anyone.


    Offensively I think Tiano stood out to me the most he looks solid and composed. He can also tote the rock. Fitz, Tiano, Williams, Staley in that order at QB. I think we will see Fitz start and do some good and bad things like a young QB will do but he will do more good than bad. I expect us to run our QBs more, hopefully get back to a true read option back there. We've got several RBs that can play, Alec Murphy looked good so did Nick Gipson. Still think Aeris will be the guy but we'll see. OL looked improved run blocking but not so much pass blocking. It was hard to get a good read on them because we were mixed and matched up front. I think it will be Clayborne at C, Desper at a G (hes not very good) Calhoun at the other G, Rankin at LT and Senior at the other. Would really love to see Elgton Jenkins take Desper or Seniors spot because Jenkins has some dawg in him. At WR we were missing our best 2 in Gray and Ross but I thought we looked okay. Mixon was up and down, Thomas may be the new stonehands and Jesse Jackson looks really polished. Malik Dear is a beast still think hes out of position but he can play wherever and play well. Holloway is gonna be a good weapon for us, he takes a lot of crap on this board but hes a good football player and is tough as hell.


    All in all if we stay healthy no reason to think we cant win at least 8 games. Just my opinion. It will hinge on the OL and as always Dan.
