I am confused.  Nassib, Bailey were G-Rob recruits.

Backup RB recruited by G-Rob?  Who is that exactly?

All contributing WR's?  I don't count Dorian Graham (since he was a CB pre Marrone), and Alec Lemon was kept on by Marrone (which you can't say for half the class that year under G-Rob)
All contributing TE's?  David Stevens was a LB under G-Rob.

2 best OL?  Pugh was similar to Lemon in regards to recruiting, but all others were Marrone recruits.  And Tiller was the 2nd best OL.

9 of 11 starters on D?  Vaughan, Chandler Jones and Marinovich were the only starters recruited by G-Rob.

I am not saying Marrone has been a great recruiter, but it varies based on what you are looking for.

G-Rob recruited better high-end talent with struggles in getting depth from his classes.  And those high-end talent guys struggled to develop, as most were busts.

Marrone recruits a lot of depth and struggles to get the high end talent.  This will be the year to see if Marrone could recruit skill positions, as Hunt may see some formations, the RB will be Marrone's and there will be other WR's besides West that need to step up.  TE will be almost entirely Marrone recruits.
