Pitt has, by my count, only 14 guys graduating after this season. Lets say there are 3-5 guys that leave in addition to that. So i was just thinking about how the potential numbers by position for this class. See what everyone thinks we need & guesses as to what the coaches will do.
QB - 1
RB - 2
TE - 1 or 2 (1 hs, 2 if no grad transfer this yr)
OL - 4 (3 OT's, 1 OG)
WR - 2
DE - 2
DT - 2
LB - 2 or 3 (2 Star, maybe a Money/MLB)
DB - 2
Total: 18-19
The immediate needs in terms of numbers are TE, & RB.
OL needs numbers but moreso difference makers. Theres talent but the talent is young. Absolutely need to improve that room though. Tackles in particular.
DE & WR you're looking for difference makers. The numbers are solid & theres talent but they could use potential impact pass rushers in addition to Weaver, Baldonado, and Morgan. Also need a potential #1 receiver.
DT, LB, DB, is all about continuing the depth & getting guys that will be quality starters in their 3rd & 4th years & contribute on special teams.
