Jgarrett7 957 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 OK, so I know we are less than a week from signing day 2017. But this is usually the time of year we start hearing more about the 2018 class. I'm just wondering who some of our top targets and needs will be next cycle. Never too early to talk about next year, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any premium accts so I get all my info from here. Looking forward to hearing more about these prospects after they visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corchjay 5,311 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 All I know about 2018 is that we better get our tails into the state of Ga and work our tails off and get a few of the top 20 players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jgarrett7 957 Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 Obviously I want us to sign the best class possible, but I'd like to see some balance as well. This year we are not signing many DL, so I'm sure that will be an emphasis next year. What will be our other needs? I assume safety is one since we missed our top 2 targets there this year.

I'd like to see us in the hunt for a top running back, next year. We need to continue stockpiling linebackers, too. Finally, we'll need receivers. If any of last year's crop breaks out, 2018 could be their last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what I meant by balance was that I like to sign players across the board every year. We should sign guys at every position every year and not wait until its a "need" to "stockpile".

QB- every year need OL- Graduating 3 starters next year so need another class of 3 or 4 WR- High 4*s Justyn Ross & Jacob Copeland are both high on AU so need to snatch them up. Buck if we miss on Bryant- Will need more than TD LB-Gotta build depth S-Graduating 3 starting or contributing SRs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is me "liking" my own post since I do truly believe it is the greatest recruiting "need" for this team and this staff going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
