Emory Blake is a name that always comes to mind. Auburn has rarely seen a four year receiver with his levels of contribution. No drama and a mostly healthy career.

Vegas decided to drop some lines recently and I think most of them are easy money. Oklahoma @ Auburn (Oklahoma -3) I think this one is fair. They have a bit more consistency and typically receive more respect than us. Auburn @ Georgia (Georgia -24) I think the under here is easy money. Yes, last week's game was at Jordan Hare but we only lost by 7. To think the game being in Athens is a 17-point difference is a stretch. Especially considering I think we are better at almost every position group than we were a season ago. Auburn @ Missouri (Mizzou -10) I understand Mizzou being the favorite at home but I'm going with the under. Not seeing them as a double-digit favorite over us. They have done a good job building a solid program over there and the easy schedule will keep them fresh. Still, I think we win this game or at worst lose it by one possession. Texas A&M @ Auburn (TAMU -3.5) Simply put, I think we are the better team, or at least even. So the home-field advantage should make us the favorite. I believe we beat this team comfortably this season. Auburn @ Alabama (Alabama -15) Milroe is not good and I am not a believer in Husky Harsin. We struggle at BDS and shouldn't be the favorite but Alabama has been hemorrhaging talent this offseason. Thoughts?

Just looking at depth and expected losses. Koy just left and I still think Burton will be gone.

I missed Moore entering. Thank God.

Just some quick thoughts by position. QB | I am surprised no one has transferred out yet. If no one leaves we won't add anyone here. RB | Surprisingly we look to be holding on to what we have. WR | I still expect two more receivers to hit the portal and we want to add at least one more from the portal. Though I haven't seen any buzz recently. TE | No active need here. OL | The Tigers would add the right interior lineman if they saw a fit but currently aren't high on any portal prospects. DL | Auburn has likely filled this need at this time LB | We would like to add one more on the interior. South Alabama's Khalil Jacobs just visited on the 30th and has received an offer. DB | San Jose State corner, Jayvion Cole, had three interceptions last year and is scheduled to visit May 6th.

Likely getting outbid

Steiner leaving is honestly for the better on both sides. For someone who scored so insanely high on his physical measurements he has looked so slow and awful at Auburn. I think maybe his brain and body just don’t process at the same time. Instincts are hard for overly cerebral players. This is a good sign regarding the freshmen linebackers we brought in early. Scott was practically processed. The staff didn’t plan on taking DBs in the portal but some better names have emerged than expected. Additionally some young guys are coming on really strong. Hood stings a little but not as much as some might think. Keionte Scott, Kayin Lee, Champ Anthony, Jay Crawford, and Jerrin Thomson are all ahead of him for me. I’d like to see Auburn get longer at corner too instead of 5’11” I’d love to see more rangey 6’2” guys. Makes a difference.

Our secondary is solid so any improvement and depth to the front seven is a win for Auburn's defense. Raikes and Blidi raise our floor at worst. I honestly think Durkin would benefit from running a more true 4 man front when possible and not expecting to have a powerful nose tackle. Blidi is a guy who doesn't pop on a stat sheet but creates enough chaos in the middle to be impactful. Raikes I honestly haven't gotten to watch much of but those who know more than me seem high on him. The edge rusher is legit. Definitely helps the rotation there. I would like to see a little more momentum in terms of landing a receiver or two in the portal.

BANG

I grew up wearing this exact jacket. Another good addition at an area of need. The focus is receiver, some depth at corner, and possibly a depth piece at quarterback and running back if certain players leave.

I think so but I’m not ready to say anything definitive yet

On3 doesn’t know squat lately lol. It wasn’t a tight race.

Seems like a commitment. Definitely an upgrade to the interior of the defensive line.

If he leaves Georgia without being committed I’ll start entertaining Rashada. We have the money but is he okay with sitting the bench and if we’re fine with paying a backup that much.

I hope I’m wrong but I was concerned with his film and numbers coming out of high school too. It’s one thing to not know the full offense but his ball placement was brutal. We shall see.
