Outlook: Braves coach Davy Dubose has fifteen starters returning for a team that finished at .500 last year. B.J. Dale will again lead the offense at QB, while Tim Underwood and Randall Barber will contend for carries. At WR, Tanner Marshall, Chance Crosetti and Collin Strahan are good targets. The offensive line should be a strength, and on defense, LBs Keondre Jermany, Troy Graves, and Cory Navors should get the job. A top-tier finish seems possible.
