Departing starters doesn't always tell the whole story. Auburn will lose our two top running backs, but we will replace them with two 5 star running backs, including the #1 juco player nationally in Jovon Robinson


We rotate so many on defense as well, especially on DL, that even though they may not be a "starter," they may as well be a "co-starter."

Just looking at the depth chart -

Everyone on the OL 2 deep except Dismukes(C) and Slade(OG).

DL that have started - Elijah Daniel, Montravious Adams, Carl Lawson(from 2013), Devonte Lambert

McKinzy at LB

Jonathan Jones, Josh Holsey, Rudy Ford, Derrick Moncrief at DB

Sammie Coates if he doesn't go pro
Ricardo Louis at WR

Jeremy Johnson if you count starting against Ark.

Some key juniors could leave for us that will be hard to replace (mostly LB Alexander, OL Alexander, and DE Hunter). If any of those guys stay I'm going to be jacked. Either way 2015 looks very promising.

Some other pretty young teams out there...

Kentucky loses:

WR - Robinson
WR - Blue
LT - Miller
TE - Borden
FB - Warren
DT - Douglas
DE - Smith
LB - Dupree
S - Lowery


That's 8 starters...if you go to the 2 deep, they lose:

TE - Shields
LB - Paschal
S - Dixon

So, they are losing a total of 11 in their 2 deep (including special teams).

We will return basically our whole offense minus Jameson Lewis and Robert johnson at wr. Dillon day and Beckeith on the ol will be gone.

Eulls and Preston smith on DL. Wells at lb. Cox and Hughes at DB.

Possible early pro drafts are Dak and McKinney. I'm positive Robinson will return at RB

If Dak returns we will be good, if not the 6 to 8 wins in a rebuild year

Our only real significant loss is Trey Flowers.

Think Dak's gone, honestly don't think Merlins will be though. It's ok. We've got Relf 2.0 coming up next. Rebel kryptonite.

Still a long way to go...if Dak actually gets projected to go into the top 2 rounds he should go.

Check and check. He'll have graduated and accomplished everything he set out to in college.

Ok. Mullen and Freeze won't be going anywhere for awhile.

I know that they always have a pipeline of talent coming in...but I was wondering what Bama would lose (without counting any early departures):

WR - Jones
WR - White
LG - Kouandjio
RG - Brown
RT - Shepherd
TE - Vogler
FB - Fowler
QB - Simms
LB - DePriest
LB - Dickson
FS - Perry
DB - Williams

That is 12 starters. If you go to the 2 deep, you add:

FB - Nysewander
NT - Ivory
SS - Williams

A total of 15 in the 2 deep, the majority of which are starters.

Bama will be losin' a lot of starters as well, if I've figured this right...figured in early entries as I don't see any chance of Cooper or Collins returning:

QB gone (Sims)
RB might be gone (Yeldon)
All 3 WR gone (Cooper, Jones, White)
LT back (Robinson)
LG gone (Kouandjio)
C back (Kelly)
RG gone (Brown)
RT gone (Shepherd)
TE gone (Vogel)
FB gone (Fowler)

DE back (Allen)
NT back (Robinson)
DE back (Reed)
SLB gone (Devall)
MLB gone (DePriest)
WLB back (Ragland)
JACK gone (Dickson)
CB back (Brown/Jackson)
SS gone (Collins)
FS gone (Perry)
CB back (Jones)
STAR gone (Williams)

Only 2 starters return, for certain, on offense, and 6 on D...

QB:We lose Wallace and he'll be replaced by one of two redshirt-sophomores.
RB: Return every one of them
WR: Lose Vince Sanders, return everyone else. He'll be missed but Core and Adeboyejo start often anyway.
TE: Return everyone
OL: Return our entire three-deep (unless someone's grandparents get sick again)

DL: Return entire three-deep except for DT Bryon Bennett (starts) and Lavon Hooks. Bennett will get replaced by Gross.
LB: Lose Shackleford, Bryant (starters) and Lewis, replace them with Nkemdiche and senior Christian Russell.
DB: Lose Golson, Prewitt (starters) and Coleman and replace them with Tee Shepard and Chief Brown whom come back from injuries.

ST: Lose Fletcher, but return Wunderlich.

So we lose two starters on offense (Wallace and Sanders), five on defense (Bennett, Shack, Bryant, Golson and Prewitt) and one on special teams. We'll miss the leadership on defense but won't see much drop off in talent. Wallace will be really missed.
