My thoughts:
It was my opinion that our offense was going to see drastic improvement in 2013, and then Menelik Watson declared for the NFL draft. Let's hope Bobby Hart works his tail off this off-season and gets his head on straight. Also, let's hope that Jimbo and co. can bring in a few more OL recruits. I believe we have one of the best receiver corps in the country, and a pretty good group of running backs. We lost a lot of experience on the defensive line, but we replace those guys with all the talent in the world, albeit less experienced. Our Defensive Tackles have some experience with Jernigan, McCallister and McDaniel. Our most experienced defensive end is Mario Edwards Jr. I'm excited to see what all those talented defensive linemen do in 2013 and beyond. At linebacker we are very young, but I believe Telvin Smith is an upgrade from Vince Williams, and Nick Moody won't be hard to replace. If we can land Matt Thomas it would be huge. As for our defensive backs, I believe we will be fine. I wouldn't mind seeing Tyler Hunter possibly even beating out Nick Waisome. I think Ronald Darby is going to be elite, and make us miss Xavier Rhodes less than we think we will.
I hope you enjoyed reading this, and please share your thoughts. This is my first post on TomahawkNation, so I know there will be some criticism. I'm planning on becoming more active on TN in terms of posting content and comments, I usually just lurk.
