-Committed to using a DI on a Returner this year

-Hopeful Charles Nelson proves to be a Day 1 starter at Rec/Ret

-Lucky Whitehead not signed yet, but hoping to get him signed before camp
-Derek Jones and Jake Thomas hopefully both start this year. Thomas took 50%+ snaps last year...have no problem with him starting at DT.

-Definite potential of starting 3 NI Rec

-2 QBs from mini-camp will hopefully be at Main Camp incl McGuire

I like Thomas, but maybe 50% of snaps should be what we strive for here....

Yup, the comment about not having any issues with him starting...is...concerning. I feel like it's a bit of saying whatever he wants situation, and I hope they aren't actually relying on him to fill that large if a role.

I think that’s about where he’ll end up.  We’ll need another NI who can take some reps and there will be Nevis at nose and 3 import DE’s, one of whom will likely take the 3 technique spot on passing downs like last season.

They also have Maxx Forde.

That's interesting. Temple was here in 2016/17.  I guess he played a bit in the AAF for Mike Riley and now he is back here.
