If Kelly is back, we will not have any dropoff in the offense.


I'll admit I don't know how your two deep is in the receiving corp. But y'all are losing Treadwell, likely Engram, and Cody Core. I guess Quincy Adeboyejo is draft eligible but I'd expect him to return? I just don't see how there won't be at least a slight dropoff losing those guys. But yes I agree, your defense has major issues to address in the offseason.

Lsufball19 -- I'm actually quite impressed in your analysis of our team.

Pretty accurate and valid questions about our depth going into next season. I would concur with most everything you've said. Rare that there is an actual, non-flaming discussion about a team on the rant.

That Washington Post article is poorly researched. Our big three juniors are as good as gone. No reason to even speculate the possibilities of them staying. They are all about to make tens of millions of dollars and good for them.

Engram should be back for his Senior year. WR will be a minimal drop. LT will be missed, but we have some very good WRs to fill in. RB will be the same and if MGK comes back we are set at QB. Chad returning is very likely at this point. OL will be hurting, but equal to where it was to start this past year.

Defense will make or break us. Gross and Conner will help, but we might be needing to out score teams.

Comparing SECw teams to Ole Miss
More issues
Arkansas
Auburn
Mississippi State

Equal issues
Alabama
LSU

Less issues
Texas A&M

This does not represent order of finish.

We will return Engram, pack, adeboyjo, and Stringfrellow. Add Losge and Jefferson to the rotation. WR will never be an issue at Ole Miss. Nkemdiche and Ward leave from the two deep D line and Isaac Gross will return after missing the entire season. We lose both starting linebackers, though Denzel missed the last three games anyway. His replacement was SEC defensive player of the week twice. The only real concern, other than replacing Tunsil, is that we lose two of our three starting safeties. Adding another top ten class. We aren't in rebuilding mode.

Engram is not going anywhere. Core was the 4th or 5th option all year. We have Lodge and Jefferson stepping in along with Adaboyjo, String, and Pack
