Spring ball flew by at Kansas State in April. And with that the summer has arrived and the football regular season will be here before we know it. In fact, Big 12 Media Days is a little over a week away. Not long after that will be the start of training camp (since the Wildcats play a week earlier).

At KSO, we have tackled the K-State roster position by position while gathering inside information, determined who the Wildcats will count on, provided projected depth charts and offered bold predictions.

Up first was the Kansas State quarterbacks. We know Avery Johnson is the starting quarterback, but we wanted to find out how much he could improve in the offseason. We also wanted to know who would take the snaps after him this season.

How big of a season could we see from K-State running back Dylan Edwards? Will the Wildcats rely solely on he and Joe Jackson? What are the concerns? What are the strengths? Who gets into the end zone the most?

Are we to believe the praise for the Wildcats’ receivers after the struggles of the prior seasons? Do they have other answers not named Jayce Brown? Everyone in the building seems to be very bullish on both Jaron Tibbs and Jerand Bradley.

Expectations are high for the K-State tight ends after four different players caught a touchdown last year and all return. After all, they led the nation as a team last year in touchdowns caught by tight ends. What do they do for an encore?

It’s a transition year for the offensive line. The Wildcats replaced assistant Conor Riley (who departed for the Dallas Cowboys) with Brian Lepak. His promotion meant that Luke Wells is now the new tight ends coach.

Very few snaps and starts return. Is that a problem?
