I bet we see most of this be confirmed by the start of next week, if not earlier.

QB1 - Stidham 2) Willis 3a) Gatewood 3b) Sandberg

RB1 - KMartin 2) AMartin 3a) Whitlow 3b) Cox; Shivers will play multiple roles

H1 - Cox (ready for a breakout season), 2) Nigh

WR1 - RDavis, Slayton, NCM

WR2 - Barrett (also still getting run at RB), Hill, Seth Williams

WR3 - Canella, Shed Jackson, Schwartz; Griffin King is a senior and will get some run, wait to see on Stove and Hastings - would be at the top of the 2nd group when healthy, no clue what to make of McClain, Canella could be a couple of spots higher or all the way off the board

TE1 - Harris 2) Tucker Brown working as blocking/6th OL 3a) Shenker 3b) Joiner

OL1 - Tega, Harrell, Kim, Horton, Driscoll

OL 2 - Sharp, Hamm, Brahms, Ashely, Troxall - this might not be the next 5 by position bc some are hurt but this is the future of the OL minus Sharp who graduates soon. need a heir at LT and need it badly, is Osborne the answer in the 2019 class? I think he plays that position at IMG, he did at his high school in TX

P1 - Sippos 2) Marshall - closer than people want to admit

K1 - Carlson 2) Shannon

DL1 - best unit on the team, possibly best unit in all of football: Davidson, Brown, Russell, Moultry/Coe

DL2 - Coe, AWilliams, Truesdell, Bryant

DL3 - AJackson, Coynis Miller, Newkirk, Jibunor

LB1) DDavis, DWilliams, Atkinson

LB2) McBride, Britt, Wooten; watch out for Zakoby McClain, and obviously Auburn will not use 3 LB on the field at the same time often. I did this to show depth more than scheme.

DB1) JDavis, Dean, Thomas, Dinson, Peters; just bc he has been healthy and gets our 5 best on the field, when Noah is healthy he will play CB and JDavis moves to N

DB2) Noah, Brussard, Smoke Monday, Sherwood, Meyers; rest include Tutt, McCreary, Leonard, Askew; Tutt and McCreary may take a leap into the 2 deep given any injuries or inconsistent play


let me know if I left anyone off
