Shame MRI has had so many injuries, but glad to see Marcus Newby get the nod. Brings more versatility to the position with better coverage skills.
We're really young
Riley on Lamar Jackson (via 247):
Based on playmaking ability, freshman Lamar Jackson has forced his way onto the field, Riley said. “Lamar has gotten to the point that we can do things were we have to get him in the game,” Riley said. “He has to be on the field. What he might lack in the pure evolution of playing the position as far as technique, he makes up for with instinctual play of football and being a very good athlete. If I were to summarize that, he can make plays.”
I give it four games before he permanently takes over one of those CB spots...
I wouldn't be surprised either. The way Riley said this and felt he then had to say the bolded is about as big a compliment you can get.
Two biggest surprises to me: Marcus Newby starting at SAM, and Tre Bryant passing Mikale Wilbon at IBack.
Nice to see Alonzo Moore and DPE "OR" at Wide Out. A little surprised that Zach Darlington is listed at QB again. Good Job Gabe Rahn, but where's the freshmen (Alston, Spielman, McDonald, etc)?
Completely agree. I'd really like to see POB be the 2nd guy. He needs some game snaps and separation from Gebbia. Using Fyfe does nothing. It will assure NU will have a guy in 2017 w zero snaps. Not sure that's a good idea. We shall see.Also, Ryker Fyfe

Forgot about him. My bad. I am relaxed. Still though, would really love some separation between POB and Gebbia. Not a recipe for success w two high profile QB's 1 year apart, if that. Someone will be pissed off when they don't get the job.Tanner Lee does not have zero snaps, so this is not assured. Relax.
