Where do you think we need the most help and where do you perceive us as being the thinnest, not just on the 2 Deep but including freshmen?

the weakest in talent level is by far at LB(assuming no moves are made). Too many high school All-District types who don't have the wheels to play at this level. Now if you move some guys like Yenga or even Bailey then you have more talent to work with. I personally would like to see Bailey develop as a DB.

I would hope to sign a quality JUCO LB and DL/DE, where they could here in the next week or two, & be here this spring would be very helpful depth wise.

Linebacker is the biggest need, although sticking Andrew McKinney in the middle and De'Von Bailey outside would be a nice upgrade. Someone posted Mario Walker as an OLB candidate — interesting idea.

Couple of JUCO offensive linemen would be a hell of a nice gift, too.

How about HS Freshman recruit Andrew Ellison 6'2" 232, 4.49 40, at LB ?

I think Smart should move back to LB like he played in high school. Fantastic motor and very coachable, but without that extra 20-25 lbs, he got turned inside a lot at DE.
