Why do you think the Cats are stacked with talent?
Well...
The D line should be very good. As good or better than last year. There are a lot of returning players there and some new additions that could really help. A little bit of an unknown with a couple of the new guys, but I expect the D line to be good to very good. Choate has focused on building depth at talent here since day 1.
Linebackers will be better. That was arguably one of the weakest spots on the team last year. Move one of the best athletes in the Big Sky to OLB, get some back from injury last year and some of the young guys are a year older and hopefully ready to contribute. They may not be dominant, but I expect the LB group to be a much more solid group than last year.
CB’s are good, a veteran and talented group.
Safety’s are very good, arguably the best tandem in the league with Konkol and Alleyne
O line is very good, again arguably one of the best groups in the league.
RB’s are very good. Ifanse, Jones, Andersen for a handful of plays a game, etc. there is depth and talent to spare in this group.
Despite the relative lack of a passing game, receivers are pretty good. I’ll take Kassis any day of the week. Jonsen is always a threat, one of the best athletes in the league.
Tight ends are an unknown, next to no experience returning. Can’t really say much at all, good, bad, or indifferent.
Kicker is good, Padmos is one of the best punters in the league.
QB? We’ll see....
So yes, I think there is a ton of talent on this team, just a major unknown at a very important position. So like I said, this team will go as far as the QB can take it.
