There's a few things I'd like to see out of each group
QBs - Is Fitz a QB or will there be a possible position change once Staley gets to town
RBs - A healthy Nik Griffin. If healthy all year he could be the starter at the end of the season
WR - Maturation of Wilson and Ross, especially Ross. He was the highest rated receiver on the roster but were those ratings accurate?
TE - Not a lot until Hutch gets to campus
OL - Who's playing where? Outside of LT and C we have no idea. I'm also curious to see what Warren looks like at the tackles
DL - Nick James. No explanation needed.
LB - Similar to TE, not a whole lot of questions here.
DB - Who are the safeties? Market? Aarington? Cox? Hughes? All 4 have an argument that they should be the starters.
ST - As long as Bell is on campus we're 17ed

Hmm.. I want to see which of our younger WRs steps up. We need Wilson, Shelby Christy, or Fred Ross to turn into a solid contributor. If they do, we could be tough to stop.

Mostly o-line questions for me

Is Jocquell Johnson the clear cut starter at RT?

Who starts between Beckwith and Clayborn?

Are Justin Malone and Jay Hughes healthy enough to practice yet?

Position changes on defense - maybe Cox to S, Arrington to LB, Christian Holmes back to LB? Holmes looked good the little he played at LB late in the season.

Who is our #4 DE behind Smith, Brown, and Jefferson (not counting Chris Jones)?

Development of Dak & Damian Williams.

Who the hell is going to be our f'ing kicker?

If Tony "Tiny" Danza can kick field goals in a movie, surely we can find someone.

And has the ship sailed on Joe Morrow (bust?) BJ Hammond...does he move to TE? What's with Fred Brown? He had a couple of unsportsmanlike calls spiking the ball after catch and then never got back in any game as I recall. How do we use Holloway? Get the guy in open space.

Additional questions ...

Looking at the roster ...

- Two new kickers added; no punters listed; anybody know anything about them (Graves Westin & Daws Cortland) and if they can replace Bell at K?
- 14 OL listed on the roster, only 3 of which are under 300 ... Senior @ 280, Flowers @ 298 and Rufus Warren @ 295; last roster I have listed Warren @ 265. Has he really put on 30#s? Is he serious about playing OT or is this just a spring experiment?
- Both Bohanna and Harrison are still on the roster. Thought they both had taken medicals. Are they still planning on playing?

Thanks

OLine has some interesting questions. This group is the best collection of talent on the Front 5 since at least 2010. Keeping Dak healthy is priority #1.
3 guards with adequate time for 2 positions, who is the odd man out?
Can a younger guy step in at RT - Senior, Thomas, Flowers? Who will replace those crucial false starts at RT?**
Can they salvage something out of Robinson? Last call.
Warren is listed at 6'7'' 295 - how does he move with the added weight?

On a related point, is there a TE on the roster who can block?
