    Offense: Dwayne Washington. I think he will become the primary ball carrier and rush for 1000 yards.

    Defense: He is already really good but, Marcus Peters. I think he is going to have a great year and end up being a 1st round pick. (Hi, Ektard)

    Offense - Ross
    Ross was a reserve last year and really only played the slot. During Spring camp this year, Ross told reporters that he's been exclusively learning the outside receiver position, making me believe that he and Williams will be primarily the outside threats and Mickens will continue to be inside. With Kevin Smith (absolute stud last season), ASJ and Stringfellow gone, we're going to need a WR to step up and it sounds like Ross is adjusting nicely to Smith's old WR position. Also, it may not be much, but Ross learning and playing nickleback last season should help him understand how to read coverages better.

    Defense - Kelly
    With Peters being the #1 CB on the team, offenses will be looking to pass away from him meaning our #2 CB will be busy all year. Kelly assumed that position midway through Spring camp after Dixon had it to start (maybe the coaches wanted to push Kelly), and I don't think any of the incoming freshmen will be able to usurp the position unless they're phenomenal. Kelly was the Defensive Scout Team MVP last year (the same award Peters won as a true freshman) and did very well this spring, so there are high hopes for him this year as our #2 CB. With a young, inexperienced secondary this year, I can see Kelly stepping up and having a breakout year on defense, even being better than Ducre.

    Damn DNC was going to post Ossai so now I'll have to give a real answer.

    Offense: Miles, I know many in here will think he'll do well. I get the feeling outside of this site nobody expects much from him. He's in his third year in the system enough said about that. He was a 4 star QB and Rivals had him as the #2 QB in the nation. He's made one start but had a lot of playing time against Oregon State on the road, UCLA on the road, Idaho State and BYU. He is pretty accurate, I wouldn't say he has a strong arm but it's not weak either. He's also very mobile and runs a lot like Kaepernik. What we'll miss from Price's deadly accuracy we'll make up for the fact we finally have a QB who bust some runs.

    Defense: I think Brandon Beaver. He'll be a redshirt sophomore and was a star in the spring camp based on the reports. He was a 3 star recruit but had quite the offers going after him. I think Beaver is poised to emerge as a playmaking safety.

    I think it would be so cool if Beaver has a key interception to beat the Beavers so the headline can be "Beaver does in Beavers" ROFL!!!!!!!

    If that happens pun abundance will ensue.

    Beaver licks Beavers
    Beaver screws Beavers
    Beavers dammed by rogue Beaver
    etc
