After watching at least a part of all 13 spring practices to this point, here's what I have:
OFFENSE
QB
1) Banks
2) Ledford
3) Daniels
Comment: This is obvious at this point, but preseason camp will determine who backs up Banks, not spring practice.
RB
1) Bradwell
2) Dauphine/Huderson
Comment: Bradwell has been a consistent star all spring. Huderson has really come on.
WR
1) Encalade, Mooney, Clewis
2) Robertson, Toles, LeDee
Comment: With Robertson hobbled, no one outside of the top three was consistently good.
TE
1) Jones
2) Ardoin
3) Wallace
Comment: Jones and Ardoin are very capable
LT
1) McLeod
2) T. Johnson
Comment: A lot is riding on the performance of the left tackles in the fall.
LG
1) Jackel
2) Ben Bratcher
Comment: This is where Bailey Granier can help
C
1) Dublin
2) Knighton
Comment: Dublin is the better player and the better snapper than Briggs, in my opinion.
RG
1) Briggs
2) Webb
Comment: Briggs staying put would give the line continuity on the right side.
RT
1) Leglue
2) Claybrook
Comment: Leglue's play last fall did not match the nice comments about him.
DEFENSE
DE:
1) Kennedy
2) Woullard
Comment: I really like Kennedy play. Uses his assets very well.
NG
1) D. Williams
2) J. Johnson
Comment: Position will be decided in preseason practice.
DT
1) Sample
2) Wright
Comment: The coaches love everything about Sample.
RE/OLB
1) P. Johnson
2) Bryant
Comment: Wave needs better production at this spot than it got last year.
ILB
1) Harris
2) Vault
Comment: Vault has been hurt/invisible when I've watched compared to last August.
ILB
1) Graham
2) Moody
Comment: Graham makes plays. Good competition here.
NB
1) Barge
2) W. Harper
Comment: Coaches and teammates are very high on Barge. Backup could be Bryant.
CB
1) Lewis
2) Langham
Comment: Lewis needs to play like all-conference performer.
CB
1) Monroe
2) Keyes
Comment: Monroe has been with the first unit almost all spring.
SS
