True freshman who play

[9nationalchampionships]

Here is my list

Davis
Reeves
Sibley
Bright ( special teams only)
Ford
Tucker ( special teams only)

Who you got?

 

[Pitt1992]

I think they plan in red shirting Davis

 

[Swervin27]

I think they plan in red shirting Davis

why do you think that? I would hope that such plans for any incoming recruit isn't pre planned months before they even step foot on campus..

 

[4Mark_Marty]

Here is my list

Davis
Reeves
Sibley
Bright ( special teams only)
Ford
Tucker ( special teams only)

Who you got?

Red shirts should not be burned for ST only this far in a coach's tenure. Should have adequate depth to avoid that by now. Just my opinion.

 

[Swervin27]

Bright and Tucker are pretty much the two players that absolutely, without a doubt, need to redshirt. I mean, IF both of these guys are going to be linebackers. isn't tucker the one that is a backup on his high school team?

WHat the hell is the OP talking about?

 

[9nationalchampionships]

LBs even if a few LBS too thin make good ST players and give them playing experience. You are entitled to your own opinion and "who you got" opens up that door for discussion.

 

[h2p_5150]

We have so many safeties right now that I expect an all safety kickoff unit. Seriously though I'd be pretty shocked if Bright or Tucker touch the field this year. I think Sibley, Davis, Reeves, Ford play for sure and one of the other FR TEs might have to play too. Everyone else redshirts hopefully.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Will Sear be ready?

Pedo trash still trolling I see. Nothing to do in nit wit land?

sorry man, I didnt' mean to call you out.. we all have our opinions, mine are usually wrong..

I just was curious about those two, they seem like they really need a year to get into the weight room, moreso than most true freshmen. I could very easily be wrong though.

Pedo trash... is that an oxymoron...

 

[Lance1717]

Will Sear be ready?

Yes, he's already been with team for 2 weeks healthy

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Good news

I think Drake gets a shot too!

Possibly on extra pts and field goals

Depends on what happens with Bookser! I think you see him play YSU at times and grow throughout the Year in other Games too! Just a Hunch.
We shall see?

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Playing a true frosh on the OL sounds bad to me.

Hmmnn...did you forgot about Dorian Johnson and Biz already? They are not in the NFL because they did not play, they started in their first years, and under a Coach that only believed in Offense and lost 2 to 3 Games on Special Teams alone? Often letting the hard work the Offense did down that way for the entire team?

 

[9nationalchampionships]

I can still remember them....lol. They are NFL players and not ready to put Drake in that ilk.

Out of necessity. I doubt any coach out there wants to make it a common practice

Bisnowaty redshirted as a freshman. Johnson started 2 or 3 games as a freshman, including the game at Georgia Tech when Jeremiah Attaochu probably made him reconsider ever playing football. He should have redshirted, and if they had any depth to step in for Bisnowaty when he got hurt that year, Johnson would have redshirted.

I don't think the Bookser situation will affect Drake. Bookser is at right guard and Drake spent all spring learning right tackle; I think that's where they project him, so if Bookser misses a game or two, I suspect someone like Justin Morgan - an OL who redshirted - will move up to the first team.

True dat.

Thanks guys, was recalling an old post with Link below, and Stand Corrected!
Yahoo on Dorian's signing:
"Johnson started 42 games at Pitt, which supports the notion that it wasn’t an issue and he could find himself in the mix for playing time immediately at right guard if all goes well this offseason."

Biz signing Too:
"Bisnowaty will be one of the more intriguing rookies to watch as the Giants begin OTAs and then transition into training camp. It isn't clear if he will be a serious contender for a starting job at right tackle in Year 1, but the Giants are high on him after trading up to take him."

Thanks, can't wait for all the Updated Depth Charts for all Teams. Good Podcasts again too!

 

[CaptainSidneyReilly]

Love the Drake!

I still think Drake will get some Starts in 2017, Pitt still way more Depth in Coach Pat & Staff 3rd Year. Pitt has been pretty lucky in not having many injuries in 2015-16.
Just a Hunch, others know more!

 

[TIGER-PAUL]

My couple questions, besides Bookser-
Will O'neill be ready?
Is Dintino a P5 level starter?
