 Projected starter: Roberto Miranda (R-Jr..)

Guy will be a solid surprise. Great blocking has been his strength since he walked onto campus. His hands may be better!

McLachlan saw most of the TE action last year, but the new staff loves Roberto and also we could see two and three TE sets this year and moving forward.

Top backups: Keyan Burnett (Jr.), Sam Olson (R-Jr.)

Both players have some experience that will pay dividends. I think the quality at TE is the biggest unknown plus for our team this year. IF we are running two and three TE sets, there is a reason for it. I do not think is a lack of quality at the WR position.

I see all three guys mentioned being huge factors this year.

They will not be the only ones.

Also expected to contribute: Tyler Powell (R-Fr.), Dorian Thomas (R-Fr.), Dylan Tapley (Fr.)

These three guys are really good young players that will likely get some PT at some point. Dorian has opened eyes since stepping on campus. Tyler has that huge height advantage in the receiving game. Dylan is talented but is more of a hybrid player in this position group. His future is very bright!
