Come one, come all.

QB: Murray / Kendall / Schafer
Ex: We're about to see if coaches were pumping Murray to recruits because of name recognition, or because he's the truth. My heart is w/ Kendall, head with Murray.

RB: Anderson / Sermon / Pledger
Ex: Really not debatable on the first 2. My guess is Pledger beats out Sutton and Brooks for 3rd string.

FB: Meier / Hall / Willis
Ex: Gone is the Swiss Army knife, I see playing time for this position going way down.

YWR: Calcaterra / Basquine / Morris
Ex: Only 1 TE on the roster, I expect either 21 personnel or lots of 4 wide, when Calc gets a breather.

HWR: Rambo / Jones / Robinson
Ex: Basquine and Jones are hurt this spring. Enter Rambo. Stoops and Tease could factor here as well come season time.

XWR: Lamb / Miller / Rambo
Ex: Not many outside WRs, but they're good ones I believe.

ZWR: Brown / Crawford / Taylor
Ex: Crawford is the next short/fast outside WR (Saunders, Westbrook, Brown).

RT: Ealy / Moore / Mittermeier
Ex: Riley says they want Samia to stay inside, therefore my bet is Ealy wins this job. Anderson (Rice Transfer) could change this on Saturday.

RG: Samia / Dalton / Robinson
Ex: Dru isn't the most popular guy after struggling in the Rose Bowl, but he's not going anywhere.

C: Humphrey / Alvarez / Dalton
Ex: Alvarez ain't sniffing Hump, that's coach speak.

LG: Powers / Ford / Hayes
Ex: Ford will remain, the best backup OG in the country.

LT: Evans / Swenson / Walker
Ex: Evans earns himself some much deserved national attention this year.


JLB/ DE: Gumbs / Jackson / Redmond
Ex: Daley also looks to be playing here. My bet is Gumbs is the main guy next year.

DE/DT: Bledsoe / Gallimore / Lott
Ex: Time for this group to step up.

NG: Overton / Faamatau / McKinney
Ex: Thompson could factor here as well. Not overly gleeful about this group, but maybe Overton's wrestling will toughen him up a bit in the middle.

DE: Mann / Perkins / Thomas
Ex: The high end potential for this group is up there. I think Mann has the most sacks of anyone not named Striker or Obo in the past 5 years.

WLB: JMT / Draper / Asamoah
Ex: Bolton will fight for this spot as well, the way Riley glowed about Draper, he could shoot up this chart. Also, Kelly could move here in the fall.

MLB: Murray / Bolton / White
Ex: Apparently, Murray is staying here.

SLB: Kelly / Jones / Bolton
Ex: Frankly, I think this position is about to go the way of the Dodo Bird. I see Kelly moving to Will (not 100% winning the job either) and OU running a base Nickel package.

CB: Brown / Norwood / BRH
Ex: You can't keep Brown's speed and aggression off the field. I think he becomes a beast.

CB: Motley / Parker / Edwards
Ex: Parker not doing physical stuff only further cements Motley here.

SS: Haughton / Broiles / Yell
Ex: Here and NG, woof.

FS: Barnes / Sylvie / Fields
Ex: Sure, nearly all our Safeties are better fits as coverage (SS) guys, but someone has to play FS behind Barnes.

NB: BRH / Sylvie / Broiles
Ex: And here is the reason we go Nickel. Getting this guy and Brown on the field at the same time.
