Size matters.

I am impressed with the size of our younger players plus the fact that this team has more team speed than ever. We will be tougher to move/penetrate along the OL this season. And the D will become more dominant due to the size/experience. We have some YUGE DTs who have to get some PT, and some YUGE OTs who are back-ups.

Then there are our two biggest and best RBs coupled with several small quick RBs.

Our upcoming WRs are now looking like grown men, and should /could be dominant at some point this year.

I now count 7 LBers who have the size to play well this year. Plus several smaller guys in the backup pipeline.

Wonder how Big Toe is coming along. Will he see serious competition from our rs freshman for KO duties? Long FG duties? Wouldn't be surprised.

Even our DBs are often around 200-215. These guys are SOLID and should provide great run support. Hope their coverage skills produce more TOs.

Seems we now match up with almost anybody, size and speed-wise. I just want to see our defensive skills as measured by ppg come down, maybe dramatically, in 2017.

Oughta be real fun watching the coaches put the pieces together this spring and summer. Lots of competitive moving pieces!
