I agree for most part with what you posted. But I am bored at work so here's an early stab at next year's 2 deep

QB - Jarrett Stidham (rJR) | Malik Willis (SO)
RB - Devan Barrett (SO) | Asa Martin (FR) / Kam Martin (JR)
H-Back - Chandler Cox (SR) | Harold Joiner (FR)
X - Darius Slayton (rJR) | Shedrick Jackson (FR)
Y - Nate Craig-Myers (JR) | Marquis McClain (rSO)
Z - Ryan Davis (SR) | Eli Stove (JR) / Will Hasting (SR)
TE - Jalen Harris (SR) | Sal Cannella (JR)
LT - Prince Tega Wanogho (rJR) | Prince Sammons (rSO)
LG - Marquel Harrell (rJR) | Brodarius Hamm (rFR)
C - Nick Brahms (rFR) | Kaleb Kim (rJR)
RG - Mike Horton (rJR) | Tyler Carr (rJR)
RT - Calvin Ashley (rFR) | Bailey Sharp (rJR)


I am all aboard the Devan Barrett hype train. I think the Martins end up in the rotation but Barrett becomes the bellcow. Would not be surprised to see Whitlow get in the mix as well. The RB battle will be really interesting this year

Really hope Ashley is ready next year. AU seems to be going after a few grad transfer tackles so chance if we land one of them would swap him in for Ashley. Interested to see what happens at center. Harrell could slide to center as well if needed if someone like Hamm emerged as one of AU's top 5 OL.

Buck - TD Moultry (SO) | Paul James (rSR)
DT - Dontavius Russell (rSR) | Andrew Williams (rSR) / Daquan Newkirk (SO)
NG - Derrick Brown (JR) | Tyrone Truesdell (SO)
DE - Marlon Davidson (JR) | Nick Coe (rSO) / Big Kat Bryant (SO)
Money - Darrell Williams (SR) | Montavius Atkinson (SR)
MIKE - Deshaun Davis (rSR) | Richard McBryde (rJR) / KJ Britt (SO)
Nickel - Jordyn Peters (SO) | Jeremiah Dinson (rJR)
BCB - Jamel Dean (rJR) | John Broussard (JR)
FCB - Javaris Davis (rJR) | Traivon Leonard (SO)
FS - Quindarious Monday (FR) | Jordyn Peters (rJR)
SS - Jeremiah Dinson (rJR) | Daniel Thomas (JR) / Jamien Sherwood (FR)


I think James, Truesdell, Bryant & Newkirk all join the regular DL rotation next year. AU actually didn't rotate as many guys as Garner usually likes. In past he says he wants 10 players in rotation. I think has shot of that this year

All of a sudden AU has a ton of linebackers so will be interesting to see how they get them on the field especially with our base defense really being a Nickel look. I think Deshaun, Darrell, Montavius & McBryde are the main guys with Britt possibly sliding in some as well. I am also high on Michael Harris but my guess is he's a year a way from contributing

DB will be interesting. I actually like AU's depth at Nickel & safety in Peters, Dinson, Thomas, Monday & Sherwood. What scares me is CB after Dean & Davis. Both guys have had injuries in the past. We need 2 dudes to step up out there. I liked what I saw from Leonard this year & think he could be one of those guys. Not sold on Broussard but not really sure what else we got back there

Why is everybody so high on Barrett?

Devan Barrett reminds me of Roc Thomas so much (minus the excessive spin moves) that it is hard for me to get on board with him being our every down back. He didn't do much in games to get me excited...

I'm hoping either Asa Martin, a bulked up Kam Martin, Joiner, or Whitlow earn a majority of the carries.

*Shivers also looks scary good
