For me it starts and ends with Dunham. He should be in the 2-deep to start the season and could be a starter by the end.

Kind of reminds me of when Rocket Ismail played for Notre Dame

At the start...

On offense:

WR Brayden Robinson. He's got speed to burn, and can be the kind of return man we haven't seen since some guy wore #25, assuming that he's recovered fully from that ACL injury.

He was timed at 10.44 in the 100 meter dash, and ran a 4.35 in the 40 yard dash, and actually quite strong for his size.

On defense:

S Joey O'Brien. Assuming he makes a full recovery by the time the season starts, of course. He's too talented to be on the bench, and the staff will have to find some way to get him on the field.


As the season progresses, I think Walton and Osborne are going to get some real reps at RB, and Rodney Dunham is also going to find a way to get on the field as part of a deep DE rotation.

Frazier & Walton on Off. Dunham & Ewetade on Def -- but others could pop

Premer or Fitzgerald. If Fitz turns in a summer and fall camp like the spring he did he'll hard to keep off the field. Hyped about Pouncey and Adams as well but there's so much experience and talent at DB might be next year once Moore, Gray and McKinney are gone before they get substantial reps.

Osborne as well
