I still the depth chart looking like this:

RB: Strickland/Grad Transfer RB/Pierre/Stritz

OWR: Ishmael/Custis
OWR: Butler/RTB or Jordan

IWR: Phillips/S Johnson
IWR: Neal/I Johnson

TE: Pierce/Hackett/Elmore

There is a real opportunity for a grad transfer RB or a true frosh to get a lot of PT.

I think Elmore is going to be mostly used as a FB.  When our opponent plays a lot of DBs or DB-like LBs, he will be inserted to discourage that practice.

I was impressed by how fast Butler flew up the depth chart last year.  Think it is pretty clear Ish, Custis and Butler will be our top OWRs.  Room for one more to get some playing time.  RTB and Jordan will battle for it.  I like them both a lot.

Obviously Phillips is really good and will get better.  Thought Neal showed me enough last year for me to think he will be as good or better than Estime inside.  Thing is, we have depth issues at RB and might be forced to leave him there.  Hope we can add another RB to the mix; might be needed to allow Moe to play IWR.  I think both Johnson crack the two deep and help...seems most of the Florida kids come really to play almost immediately.

Pierce should get a lot of touches.  Hackett will play a lot too.  Agree we will use 3 WR sets a lot more, using a TE instead of a 4th WR and I think in certain situations, we will see sets with two TEs.
