    I want to see more of scott and murphy in the pistol... when they run the inside/outside zone plays from the pistol the offense usually picks up decent yardage...

    Looks about right to me except for one thing. I really think McCray becomes a linebacker next year, and starts. He is a heck of a player, just a half step to slow to play DB.

    Scott is the best NFL prospect we have at RB. He is very balanced in power and speed, great blocker and good hands. I definitely think he is the starter next year.

    Parso, great job as usual!!!

    Looks to me like we need to take 1 RB in the signing class. I get the feeling watching that Scott will be the power, 3rd and 2 back, and he may get the most work overall. We gotta keep trying to get Keiland loose in space, he's a home run hitter. I haven't seen enough of Murphy, he had one really good run against OSU. He reminds me a little of Harvey Williams. Tall, lean, fast...

    That's my thinking as well.

    He's got perfect size for an LB, so he doesn't have to bulk up any and can keep the speed he's at.

    The only area I would disagree with is I suspect Keiland Williams will be #1 as will Patrick Johnson. It will be interesting to see how it turns out.

    If Keiland has the same spring he had this past spring, he will be No. 3 as CP mentioned.

    If he learns blocking schemes, he will be No. 1.

    Moving McCray to OLB is an interesting thought. He's about 205 lbs, so he would have to bulk up to 220-225. He's pretty good against the run. Maybe he would have better success covering a TE or RB instead of a WR.

    I'm not sure RJF will move back to DE. Looked like he bulked up a bit and is better suited for DT. I think that's why Jackson didn't have a great year, bulked up too much and lost some speed on the edge.
