Thanks_Tom RR Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 If Peyton Newell gets significant playing time, you can credit Parrella not just as a great developmental job but a resurrection. Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 1st glance thoughts: No Eric Lee or Avery Anderson. Both appear to be slipping down the depth chart. Wonder if nothing changes if they will stick around. Dismuke has moved back to safety. Collin Miller at ILB was a bit of a surprise. Quote Link to comment

They're still only Sophomores; they've got some time to make a contribution. It is surprising to see Bootle and Joseph over them, though. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I didn't even realize Marcus Newby was still here. I really like him and Davis at OLB. If it's true McStoltenberg is up to 310 I think our personnel is better suited for a 34 defense. Quote Link to comment

Lee sounded like he was right in the mix last fall. Not sure what to think about that. Yes, they're just sophomores. But there are Freshmen on there and they aren't. Pretty legitimate question as to why. Quote Link to comment

Pretty legitimate question as to why. Gotta hope they're patient. It could get out of hand if we have to take 7 DBs in one year to have depth. Assuming the staff has a good enough year to stick around for awhile, roster management/balance is going to get very important very quick, especially at WR and DB. Quote Link to comment
Morrissey Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Would not be surprised if Domann jumps Reed at some point. Quote Link to comment
Decked Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Feel pretty good about that lineup minus the DL. Which IMO is probably besides MAYBE the WR class coming in the best in the class. Watts and Daniels to NT. Deontre Thomas should easily be able to take one of the backup spots at DE if he is pegged to be the kind of player he's capable of. Quote Link to comment
SouthLincoln Husker Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Remember this is pre-spring. A lot can change before fall! Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share Posted March 1, 2017 No Tyrin Ferguson? He's injured so I'm guessing that's why he wasn't listed. Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share Posted March 1, 2017 I don't really know. Just speculating. Quote Link to comment
