Juan Guzman and Bobby Browder lead the way up front on defense while Cameron Greene and Antwan Edwards start at LB. On offense, Raymand Felder should see lots of carries with Chris Taylor also vying for time at RB. Tyler Freese gets the nod at Tight End, and Lloyd also should play. A QB is needed and more weapons are needed but improvement as the year evolves is expected.
