The offense brings back two tackles, and the lone skill position player back is WR Joe Mendoza. Newcomers Albert Obregon will be at QB and either Jon Garza or Harold Valdez will start at RB. Newcomer Eliud Valle will see time, along with Mendoza, on the perimeter. Line play will be good, and the defense has experience. If skilled offensive players emerge, it should evolve into a pretty good year.
