ole miss loses four of top five tacklers on "D"
Both starting DTs, r nkemdiche and hamilton
Both starting LBs and three of top four. d nkemdiche, cj johnson and russell.
That's four of starting front six.
For all we know f brown might opt out early.
I would think losing four starters on the O-line would be a major concern.
granted rebs have a talented WR corps but, have any shown the ability to be an all american in '16? That's what you're losing. An all american that was the #1 play maker on the "O".
Plus, leading rusher. Though that's not that big a deal at ole miss. Anyone shown ability to replace all those yards in return game though?

Walton was serviceable but we were bottom four in the league in both kickoff and punt return yardage. We lose a stud left tackle that only played five games. Our BEST linebacker was Gates and we return seven of our top ten on the d line PLUS A THREE YEAR STARTER THAT REDSHIRTED. while we have plenty of experience returning at safety they do have big shoes to fill with Elston and Hilton gone. Everyone loses those kind of players though. Engram COULD go early but won't. Stringfellow COULD but won't. Brown COULD but won't. We graduate a senior class that was ranked 47th when they signed and we will likely lose three underclassmen. No one will return a better QB. In fact it's not even close. We have holes to fill but no more than anyone else. Again, if we lose four or five games it'll be because good teams beat us, not because we have a roster that lacks experience and talent.
Edit. As it regards treadwell, he's an elite player but our offense spreads the ball around. Yes we have guys who have game breaking ability on the perimeter. Stringfellow and Adeboyjo are as good a combo as anyone has.

There seems to be some misinformation. For the record...
Juniors forsure leaving: Treadwell, Tunsil, Nkemdiche
Juniors likely staying: Kelly, Engram, Conner
Starters:
QB - Kelly
RB - Judd/Wilkins
WR1 - Stringfellow
WR2 - Lodge
Slot - Adeboyejo
TE - Engram
OT - Little (assuming he signs)
OG - Patterson
C - Conyers
OG - Sims
OT - Rawlings
DE - Haynes
DT - DJ Jones/Gross
DT - Speaks
DE - Brown
LB - Gates
LB - Caldwell/JUCO 4 star
Husky - Woods
SS - Conner
FS - Hampton
CB - Bridges
CB - Webster
I see 16 out of 22 that started more than one game this year. Returning starters is a bit of an exaggeratory barometer. Plenty of experience in this group.
Of course, probably not as top-end as '15. Still a group that will be underrated, able to be dangerous for any team, and certainly capable to beat LSU tho.
