Chris Edwards has departed as a veteran, dependable signal caller, and it's hard to say who will replace him. C.J. Davila and Jordan Beall will split carries at RB, and both are capable. Phillip McDaniel will serve as the blocking back. On defense, the line and secondary should be strengths. Paul's team certainly faces obstacles, but improvement is likely.
