sleeper players this year

Offense - Alvin Cornelius came on at the end of last year and was playing a lot. I think he takes a leap as a sophomore and becomes a consistent threat to complement Broyld/Estime.

Defense - I'd say the defensive end position as a whole. Ron Thompson, Isaiah Johnson and Donnie Simmons all saw at most a limited amount of action but I think all three bring an element that rarely saw last year. We struggled last season getting pressure on the QB on the outside without blitzing. These three have the ability to do that.
 
My picks are our 2 hybrid receivers, Custis, and Enoicy, blocking ability will be as important as receiving, in a fast paced offense.
 
So many different selections - which is awesome!

Good call on this - I'm going with Cornelius on offense and Johnson on defense.
 
Offense - Estime... Most dynamic playmaker on the roster doubles his touches and the results will speak for themselves.

Defense - Hodge or Kelly... I think Hodge just needed the playing time last year, he'll clean up this year... From everything I've heard and seen Kelly had a great Spring and the man can flat out fly.

2nd Level

Offense - I don't know if they qualify as sleepers, but, Morris and McFarlane. Both very good at what they do with very bright futures and good heads on their shoulders.

Defense - Sugar Bear and Zeek, big boys who did well in their limited time last year... They'll take even more reps from Welsh and Robinson this year in addition to snaps on the interior of the DLine.

3rd Level

Any Fr that can make an impact is a bonus.
 
McFarlane - I think he's a much more dynamic and flexible offensive weapon than we got to see last year, not that he didn't play well. I think he'll be able to be especially dangerous working with GM3 and PTG while we have All ACC calibre threats in Ashton Broyld and Brisly Estime.

Defense is harder. I'd say Sugar Bear or Johnson.

Aren't Sugar Bear and Ron Thompson one and the same?

Jeesh my bad, still feeling the effects of the 4th, I mean sugar and Johnson. I need a nap.
 
Offense - Steve Ishamel - Will be 3rd leading receiver on the team
Defense - tie Isiah Johnson and Darius Kelly

Who are you thinking for the top 2 receivers? Broyld and Estime would be my guess. Or Jarrod West?
