LBs and TEs please....

With Shaq leaving (or entering the Portal) and TE depth, me thinks we need at least one of each. I hope we recruit these next.
The depth at WR and DE is insane.

I agree that it would be nice to pick up a quality OLB and TE.
Galloway will be back in 2020, so incoming TE will have sone time to develop/learn.
Throw in a couple of receivers and DE (Burch?),, and this class is a wrap.

I don't quite understand why the big need for LBs. We have 5 good-looking prospects about to show up in a few weeks. Why not wait a bit and see what we caught in the 2019 "net" before deciding LB is a weakness right now? BV will always get his share of our recruiting classes.

Although it’s rare that a true freshman LB is ready to play in BV’s system. Combine that with all our LB signees coming in in the summer so they’ll already be behind, and Constantin’s injury, and I don’t think it’s super likely that those guys are ready to be meaningful contributors year 1, but they might not have to be.
Simmons is locked in as 1 starter, then suspect Skalski and Chad Smith are your other 2 starters. There isn’t a whole lot of depth behind them but that’s a good group of 3 and then you just hope you don’t get injuries so you can bring the freshmen along slowly and maybe space out their games played to keep redshirts intact.

Behind those 3 you have just Mike Jones Jr and Jake V.

At least one of the four better be ready to go quick. Playing someone full time is a recipe for injuries. I bet Venables already knows at least 2 positions.

Needs are mostly addressed at this point except WR

Take 2 out of the 3 or 4 being looked at, maybe Williams and Lambert. After that there are certain oversigns where the position doesn't matter. Burch, Smalls, Gilbert, Flowe, Webb, Gray, Ngata.
