No difference makers, and way below what is needed at the skill positions. 2020 will be a crucial class. There are several difference makers at the skill positions that are on the board. If we can't land them, then we are in trouble for the next few years. Elite teams have difference makers at the skill positions in addition to highly rated lines. I can't name one difference maker that plays or will play for Notre Dame this year. I don't think these positions will just take care of themselves as you state.
