Whoever emerges at QB will have 6'6" target Willie Jefferson to look for along with WR Anthony Lee. The offensive line should be solid with the return of Daniel Lamelle, Jherick Campbell, Clyde Pitre and Kalon Jones. The defensive strength may be the secondary with Breon Johnson leading a group that includes Thaddeus McCray and Quinton Austin. After going 4-6 last season, if normal development occurs, a good year should result.
