Here are the players:
Centers: Kayden Lyles, Maurice Smith, Bryson Estes
Guards: Dillan Gibbons, Thomas Shrader, Zane Herring, Jaylen Early, Qae'shon Sapp, Kanaya Charlton
Tackles: Darius Washington, Robert Scott, Bless Harris, Lloyd Willis, Julian Armella, Rod Orr, Daughtry Richardson
That's 16 players.
I think we have 4 guys who are all but penciled in as starters: Gibbons, Washington, Scott, & Lyles.
The others fighting for the 5th spot likely include Shrader, Smith, Harris. These 3 will probably play a lot regardless of who's named starters.
Depth players this year could include Willis, Armella, Early, Herring.
Obviously Atkins is going to play with the lineup a lot, get the best group out there. I'm usually a big "get your 5 best on the field" but when it comes to OL, it's more about getting the best group of 5 on the field. It'll be interesting to see how it shakes out.
We really need guys like Washington and Robert Scott to have a healthy offseason where they can actually get stronger. I'd also like to get another high caliber transfer, make it 8 guys we feel really good about starting.
Lastly, I love the class we just brought in. High ceilings for all of them.
