Positions for '13 commits

[ibleedhuskyblue]

Because so many high school kids play so many different positions, i like to go through every season, and try to figure out what position each commit will fill. Here are my guesses so far.

QB- Richard lagow
RB-
FB- Matt Walsh
WR- Noel Thomas, Jamar Summers, Dhameer Bradley
TE- Cameron Stapleton, Tommy Myers, Quinn Thompson
C/OG- Kyle Schafenacker
OT- Tommy Hopkins

DT- Folorunso Fatusaki, Lance Burlingame
DE- ShaKi Holines
LB-
CB- Javon Hadley, Thomas Lucas
S-

- Walsh, and Holines could both play LB, but i think FB and DE are right.
- WR's and CB's are seemingly interchangeable out of HS, but from what i gather its the 3 WR, and 2 CB so far.
- It seems odd to me that we have another FB, and 3 TE's in this class. But from everything ive heard, this is what were doing with them all. On a side note, i wonder if Walsh coming in at FB moves one of Clax/Vinci to LB ??? We would have 5 FB's with MO, and RF still here for a year.
- We have a young group of up and coming LB's (vann/ashiru/smallwood/hicks stephens), but i would be surprised if we didnt get one.
- Same as LB, we have good Safeties for a couple years, and beyond it seems...but i would be surprised not to see 1 come in. Maybe a Hybrid S/CB who can switch if needed (ala b jones)
- RB is a big need...imo. I like mccombs and williams, and i think Max will be a good player when his time comes, but we need depth.

Sometimes the kids say things on Twitter (which i only follow if a Tweet is posted here), so i can miss these things occasionally.

Please let me know if i am off on any of these guys based on what we've heard, or what we know.

imho

qb-lagow
te-myers and cam
de-thompson
lb/de-holines (hard to tell)
db-hadley, summers and lucas
fb-walsh (yes i think clax to lb and i also think we almost had a rb/fb leave this summer and the staff is preping for that to possibly happen again, it also wouldn't suprise me if down the road he gets a look at lb)
og-sch
ot-hopkins
dt-flo and bur
wr-brad and noel

i'm xpecting 1 or 2 more tight ends this class. 1 more wr. 1 of those tight ends may be a te/wr mix guy. another lb and db also. we nee a rb also. def a center and a 4th oline guy for starters. then i'm not sure but 22-25 slot wise we will see...

 

[ibleedhuskyblue]

Are you sure about Summers ? I thought i heard somewhere that HE said WR ?

 

[Dann]

i know in has he is a wr and db but i was under the impression he was going to be a db. i think dez reported him as a db also.

 

[ibleedhuskyblue]

Thanks...thats exactly why i asked.
Good to know.

another- Thompson at DE ? once again i remember hearing that TE was a lock...no ?

 

[Dann]

i think he was a mix te/de recruit and it was rumored that coaches saw him more as a de then te. i think bc was looking at him as a de and we were open to either position. he also i think plays qb or something else in hs so hes really a ath that we are projecting to a psoition.

we still have no answer on him but at this point i'm thinking since no news has come that 14 is more likely than this year. either way the kid is a husky 100% it seems.

scout also saying summers is a cb

Won't be surprised whichever side of the ball he ends up on... Byron Jones came in that way... ended up on D...
