I just think of Dom Jones, starting free safety in the spring, sits behind Weber this fall and next. Granted he plays a lot in sub-packages. Another kid like Julian Wlodarczyk, who had has shirt pulled a couple years ago. He has to sit behind Tutsie for a third straight year.
Hope we don't see a bunch of underclassmen hit the portal. On the flip side, I would like us to add a portal DE and/or DT. DE in particular with losing McCormick and Thomas. Also Waege coming off an injury.
