Justin Evans is a stud at QB and will be the focal point of the offensive attack. Evans passed for more than 2,000 yards last year, ran for almost 500 yards, and combined for 26 scores. At WR Jamie Smith caught more than 1,000 yards worth of passes last year and scored ten times. Alonzo Gurode and Pierre Flemings are top RB candidates. On defense Andrew Washington and Quinn Taylor lead play upfront. At LB Thomas Williams and Kenneth Jones are solid. In the secondary DeMarcus Blue is the captain. Improving last season's 5-5 mark should not be a problem.
