QB - Returner will be better if for no other reason than experience.
RB - Assuming Steward/Abbington are what we have seen glimpses of, we have more depth. Losing MM sucks but he wasn't even going to be a RB going into last year. Had Steward been healthy, it would have been Hansbrough, Steward, Witter with some Murphy. This year, it will be Hansbrough, Steward, Abbington, Witter. I think it could be better because of the depth.
TE - Again better if for other reason than experience.
OL - Yes, lost a starting LT. Yes, I hate all the movement right now. But the bottom line is I think we return actually 5 guys with starting experience and 4 regular starters. If the staff is moving them around, I have to believe it is because it makes us better, not worse. I think the OL will be even better with the experience returning.

LB - Will be better because of not just experience but all those backups are now better with experience too and adding all the new talent.
DB - Same can be said for the defensive backs. I think as a whole, our defense is nearly as good if not as good as last year, it's just relying on different aspects of it.
ST - May take a hit here. Really can't replace Murphy in the return game. Having said that, we'll find someone that gets the job done and doesn't cost games.

I just see too many question marks to reasonably think they all get answered positively, or even enough of them do.
QB- Mauk is wildly inconsistent. Way too much down last year. Must improve vastly.
RB- Depth here is a big concern to me if Steward and Abbington can't go. Even if they do you are looking at two guys who really haven't played.
WR- virtually zero experience. Like the talent, just have to see it produce. Iffy at best.
OL- lots of experience and two sure fire Sunday guys, but also aim thinking the coaches did not like what they had at T considering they took two JUCO guys and moved our best interior guy outside. I definitely do not like all of the shuffling here. Cause for concern imo, but a reasonable chance to be a strength if a few things fall into place.
DL- man, big losses here. I have faith in Kul but just seems too much to overcome. Harris better be ready to be a star and TBJ better be ready to be a serious contributor or we may be in trouble.
LB- love our depth, experience, talent. No issues.
DB- maybe our best position group. Think we have two Sunday corners, Simon is a 3 year starter and I think Sherrills can be a superstar. Like the mix of experience and young talent behind them as well. Back 7 is strong and pretty deep.
ST- this is where we will really miss Murphy. He was a game changer. Also a new punter, but that may not be a bad thing.
Hope I'm wrong, but just too many question marks for them all to come up roses imo. If GP can win the East once again it would just be a phenomenal coaching job. Maybe his best ever.
