[QUOTE="Gtech50, post: 883385, member: 2395"] Since it’s a slow time of year and fall camp is starting soon I thought I’d throw out my projected starters and sleepers for the year. [B]Offense[/B]: QB: Sims RB: Dontae WR: Carter WR: Blackburn Slot: McCollum or Rutherford TE: Leonard LT: Williams LG: Tchio C: Franklin or Adams RG: Quick RT: Leftwich or Robinson [B]Breakout players: Blackburn[/B]- obviously his only question mark is his health after last years injury. I’m betting on him being close to 100% and being our breakout star this year at WR. [B]McDuffie[/B]- All three RBs will be great this year and I’m predicting an even better year out of this group despite losing Gibbs and Mason. McDuffie is a legit ACC starting caliber RB and will breakout (although not really a breakout after rushing over 1000 last year). [B]McCollum and Rutherford[/B]- Both Rutherford and McCollum will have big seasons this year (I couldn’t choose one). I think the new offense will emphasize getting the ball out quickly and their speed and route running will make for easy targets for Sims in the slot. [B]Breakout Freshman: DJ Moore[/B]- I think he will push for a starting job by the end of the year and will be the future star WR for us along with Blackburn. [B]Defense:[/B] DE: Kennard or Harris DT: Douse DT: Biggers DE: Keion LB: Thomas LB: Ace Nickel: Edwards CB: Sims CB: Walton S: King S: Allen [B]Breakout players: Zeke Biggers-[/B] Like Blackburn, his biggest question mark is his health. Reports are saying he’s fully healthy and has lost weight while gaining strength. I’m projecting him to win the starting job and this will be his breakout year. [B]Charlie Thomas- [/B]He kinda broke out last year but faded hard by the end of the year. I think he will be our best defender and leading tackler this year. Bold prediction- he will be a first or second team all ACC player this year. [B]Derrick Allen- [/B]Our revamped secondary will have to improve this year and I think we have the talent to look completely different (in a good way). Allen has continued to improve each year and looked good this Spring. I think he will anchor the secondary and lead the team in INTs. Edwards and King will also have big years. [B]Breakout Freshman: Jaylin Marshall-[/B] Marshall has the size and freaky athleticism to play early. He stood out in the spring and I think should be in the 2 deep at Safety as a freshman. I don’t see many freshman playing on D this year but he might be one that is too good to keep off the field. [/QUOTE]
