Starting RB Tristan Meyer is back after a near 1,200 yard season last year and Mark Jackson takes over at QB. Jackson is a dual threat athlete who is explosive with the ball. Tight End Corey Strmiska should be a good target. The offensive line has key returners and the defense needs one or two impact players. Trent Rojas will start at LB with Greg Carter a starter in the Safety. Some improvement is possible. |
