Its the offseason, so with not much else to talk about, I was wondering what each team is looking at being a strength and weakness in the coming year. As an LSU fan, I personally think our greatest strength might be our secondary once again as we have so much talent back there, with our weakness (Besides QB because im not taking the easy road) I would have to say our Middle Linebackers due to depth still not being as great as we need it to be.

Monty, what is the secondary looking like this year? I know y'all lost Jackson and Humphrey but what does the returning depth look like?

State's strength on O will be QB. Unfortunately, the weakness will be WR
Prediction: LOTS of hottub/icebath time for Fitz

For State
Weakness: Receiver, Right side of the O-line and passing game until Fitz proves otherwise.
Strength: Linebacker, left side of the o-line, running game. D-line has a lot of talent but I'm not putting them as a strength until they prove it.

Strength: Should be OL due to the depth/talent there
Weakness: Probably Secondary, specifically at CB (we have plenty of talent at safety but not enough at CB)
That said, both units have new coaches this year as do a couple of other units.

Weakness: Special teams
Bama lost their kicker who was really solid from inside 40. The most consistent long snapper I can remember. And two really dangerous return men in Eddie Jackson and ArDarius Stewart.
It's often overlooked aspect of the game, but there are plenty of question marks coming into this season in that phase.
Strengths: running game
Bama has a number of talented backs and a qb that's very dangerous in space. I'm not totally sure what direction the new OC is going to take this offense, but if it were up to me, Bama would lean on the run pretty heavily this season.

Offensively, The Rebels will score 6 1/2 out of every 10 times they have the ball...
Defensively, they have no linebackers.
Ole Miss can outscore 7 teams on the schedule. the other 5 will decide how the season plays out.

Losing those two hurts (hell losing Jackson mid-way through season last year hurt) but the secondary looks pretty solid on paper. There are technically 4 solid returning starters.
Safety:
The strong safety will be Ronnie Harrison. He came into his own last year from incredible raw talent to a more disciplined complete player. Should be solid at this position.
The free safety will probably be Minkah Fitzpatrick again (he moved over from corner last year). He's really good (first round draft pick good).
The key safety backups should be Hootie Jones and Deionte Thompson. Both have seen some playing time and are great athletes who now have some time in the system and should be solid options.
Corner:
The top two guys will likely be Anthony Averett and Tony Brown. Both are technically returning starters (Tony largely at Star/Nickel corner). Averett was considered by many to have had the best year at corner last year although not as physically gifted as Humphrey was.
Not a ton of experience after those two but there are 4 and 5 star guys waiting in the wings. Levi Wallace played a lot last year as a backup. Shyheim Carter played as a backup last year too.
Projected lineup:
Corner 1: Anthony Averett
Corner 2: Tony Brown
Star: Shyheim Carter
Key corner reserves: Levi Wallace, Aaron Robinson, Jared Mayden, Nigel Knott
SS: Ronnie Harrison
FS: Minkah Fitzpatrick
Key safety reserves: Hootie Jones, Deionte Thompson
I actually don't think the secondary will be a weakness. I will say they appeared to get beat up in the Spring Game although I never read too much out of a scrimmage.

Weakness is secondary? WHAT?
This maybe the best 2ndry Bama has had. Tons of talent and experience there.
The biggest weakness in my opinion will the be right side of the O-Line or special teams.

Yeah, I'd say the front 7 is a bigger question mark. Specifically the DL.
Replacing Allen, Tomlinson, T. Williams, and Anderson (I know they are technically LBs) will be a lot of production to make up for.
Payne is a stud and Hand has shown flashes. But some of the younger (newer) guys are going to have to step up. Raekwon Davis, Terrell Hall, Q. Williams, A. Jennings, maybe Buggs or King. Tons of upside but not a lot of experience.
