A lot of big weight gains. Young guys like Beyer, Colbert, Cook, Creamer, and Doyle are now at viable playing weights to contribute this year.

Colbert at 234 makes me feel a lot better about his move to LB

Yes, I used Kakert's tweet. Just because he tweeted them separately so they would show up better here.

Edit: Dammit, he fucking cut off the positions.

So 2 senior "starters" on D and 3 senior starters on O (plus one for the kicker)

They always have to have one infuriating decision, and that decision is Gervase over Stone.

Nixon is a real bummer. The dline should be good in pass rush situations but they're really lacking true DT bodies and he would have played.

I kinda like Harrell as a DB but they've recruited really well there and badly need bodies at RB without Toks around

That sucks about Nixon but is the one position where they aren't going to be in bad shape without him. Nelson, Nelson, Hesse, Reiff, Hesse, Epenesa should be damn good.

Yeah that would be awesome if a single one of those guys was a natural defensive tackle

ISM was second team last year too and still played a lot. It's not like they're only going to play two WRs. Seems like it's probably more them rewarding Brandon Smith for having a good off-season on the weight room than anything else.

I honestly thought Gervase would play worse than he did, but Stone proved to be a difference maker out there and better be the starter come fall.
