WR- Payton is playing outside and slot. Leach has transformed this group in a short time and how good this group will be will depend on how the wild cards do- Ducking, Harvey, Polk, and Knox.

OL- I think Lashley and Nick Jones will ultimately end up starting.

DL- Looks like we have some depth here. I like moving Jordan Davis to DE. I hope he ends up being the Edward Smith of this group. I'm interested to see how we use Crumedy because he could function as a DE or NT in this scheme.

LB- Brule or Watson at MLB? I want to see how Cumbest and Purvis do moving to LB.

CB- I think Decamarion Richardson emerges as the coveted third CB.

S- Looking forward to seeing Jalen Green. Does CJ Morgan move and how healthy is he?

Defense in general- I think we're going to realize just how decimated we were with injuries last year. DeMonte Russell, Purvis, Morgan, Dylan Lawrence, and Janari Dean are all guys that could have helped us last year and were out most of the year.

PR- I think Teddy Knox or Harvey takes the job. Austin Williams did a good job fair catching the ball but we could use someone that can make a game breaking play.
Pretty sure Payton was only taking outside reps because Tulu and Ducking were a little banged up and held out. I'll be shocked if he plays inside and out during the season, barring more injuries, especially with 3 outside receivers joining in the summer.

I'll believe in Lashley when I see it. He's been in college for 100 years and never contributed. It's always something with him.

Brule isn't playing any MLB. It's Bookie followed by Groce. Supposedly Cumbest is going to get a look at DE, but I don't believe he'll ever be a major contributor. Football and baseball are too hard to play part time for someone who isn't just a freak.

I wish we would give Tulu a shot at punt return, but it doesn't seem that's happened so far.
