At QB Tyler Fuqua is a newcomer that Lipsey has faith in. Marcus Smith is a good option at WR. On defense Caleb Stone and Cody Cross anchor the line. Michael Peters is strong at LB. The Dragons should be competitive week in and week out, and if they get better than expected play from a newcomer or two they could be very good.
