So what freshmen on both sides of the ball will get the most PT this year?

My prediction:

RB: Henry
WR: Falkins, Foster
TE: OJ Howard

CB: Cook, M. Smith (nickel)
LB: Foster
DL: Allen

Same as you.




I wonder where Alphonse Taylor is on the OL depth chart. I liked his potential at Nose, then they switched him to the OL.

According to some of the reports from summer workouts on 247, Tyren Jones is the freshman RB who was turning heads. I guess we'll see if that holds up in fall camp, but I don't see any reason for it not to. Apparently he's got the full skill set already and is advanced for his age at pass pro-blocking, catching, awareness/vision, and footwork. His sister being an all-world athlete in middle school shows the genetic pool from which he came is special to say the least. In addition to all the physical stuff he can do already, the mental part is apparently quite advanced too in terms of work ethic and being competitive. I honestly want to see them all play, but it would seem prudent to redshirt at least two of them so as not to create a log-jam at RB.
