Im bored as hell... This is a very affordable wishlist with Curne being about 750k the big spender.

Dwayne Galloway FR DB at WV. Tall and fast

Malik Blocton Soph DL at Auburn. Played 7 games as a true freshman. They had a good DL.

Vines-Bright FR WR at Washington. Outside field stretcher. IMG kid, played with Olugbode. Coach Reed is his agent.

Curne we all know him.

Air Noland QB S.Carolina RS Soph. Good QB for Zollers to compete with. We win no matter who starts.

Carde Smith FR OT Colorado. Former 4 star recruit.

Very affordable group that can have impact. IMHO as usual. Anyone got a list?

If we go for a big-fish OL in the portal, I really hope it's Curne. His position flexibility would help us get our top 5 OL on the field.

Im good with everything on the list except this. Have some good connections with the SC FB program, and this guy is a problem. Lazy, doesnt show up to film/practice, doesnt care at all about football.

Also, id add exploring Sprague or Babalola from Michigan. (just noticed Jake Garcia is still in college while looking up how to spell Babalola. Garcia is on the Michigan roster lol)

Since Drink went boring with his OC hire to keep, we need an exceptional line. So yes, biggest investments need to go there to put out an even better line than we had this year.

Still disappointed we did not have more on the second string to put better center play out against our biggest opponents.

Were in a tough spot at QB. Someone needs to compete with Zollers but neither can be scared off if they don't start, plus I expect us to spend on OL so the QB has to be relatively affordable. I will take another look.

It would be nice to have the draft grades back to give Jones an idea Green is going to do. Even if he comes back they need to get an OT capable of letting him move back inside. Having Green beside Wilson or Guidice would clean up a lot in the left A gap. I guess you hope that Williams or Richardson can take over for Trost. Jones struck gold with that guy.

But will Green move inside even if he returns? He wants to get paid in the NFL as a LT.

Im not sure he has the range to play OT in the league...but if it makes him come back for another season it will benefit the team. They can throw bags at a Center and right tackle.

Thank you.

Upon advice of counsel, I have amended my list to no longer include Air Noland and replaced him with;

Jadyn Davis QB Soph Michigan. Originally a mid 4 star recruit. Has been coached by our new OC.

The current IOL crop in the portal is pretty weak. I will be surprised if Jones goes outside the program for an answer at Center.

The Tackle transfers might make some hay. Everyone and their brother will be after Curne. Jimothy Lewis might be a cheap option for RT. Miles McVay is on the move again too. He has all the stuff you cant coach but cant seem to find his way on the field.

Looks like McVay got into 7 games for UNC at tackle and Guard so that's useful. But anyone from that Mississippi State OL worries me. But maybe the QB made things worse.
