Travis Tomak will start at QB after playing sparingly last season. At RB, Godwin Wyche is the likely starter. Tommy Singletary will serve as a top option at WR. With eight starters back on defense, that should be the strength of the team. Linebackers Johnathan Schneider and Iris Norris lead the way. Talent is in the fold, and Blackmon brings a winning mentality. Improvement is expected.
