We need to upgrade TE big time.
Shavers hasn't shown much so far at WR. He also missed the initial tackle on special teams on their long punt return.
K. Robinson needs more touches on offense.

Yea - I'm afraid he's probably gone.

I feel like this group will be good enough (especially after what Mac showed yesterday) but like any Saban team it depends on hunger and motivation.
Also the schedule is tough(even though media will still criticize it)

There’s also Xavier Williams at WR as well, or did he switch positions?

He's there - as will be the freshman. I'm guessing at least one of the freshman will be in that mix as well (though we aren't positive who the freshman will be in their entirety yet, obviously).

Yea, that one feels like a pretty big toss up for competition

The good news on defense is.......
- Hopefully we have a new man in charge who hopefully has full control and knows what he is doing
- Competition all over the field - real competition between guys who are talented and young, but guys who have been here for 12-24 months already
- ILB's who at least understand and are confident in what is being called, where to go, who to cover and how to explain that to the Front 7
- We can't be much worse - I mean we were BXII defense bad against offenses with any ability to make plays this year. A coordinator who knows how to teach and a 2-deep primarily made up of guys with 12+ months in the program is bound to make us a semi-competent defense.

It's pretty wild that, in theory, we could return our entire starting 11 on offense.

I seriously wish Muschamp would get the job but will he get let go by South Carolina ?

Lee and Harris will see the field again. If no one could jump them this year for playing time I doubt it will happen next year. Yes if Moses comes back I see him starting.
I also would not be surprised to see Najee and D Smith come back. The WRs group will be deep in the draft and I am not sure D Smith goes 1st rd. I just saw one list that had him ranked 7th among WRs that could be in the draft.

I also find it amusing though that so many expect the incoming freshman to make an immediate impact. It seems everyone gets so excited about the incoming class but by the end of the season if they did not see a lot of playing time people write them off.
