Who are some realistic potential transfers that you've identified this season that still have atleast 1 year of eligibility and would fill positions of need for Auburn next year? QB, receiver, and LB would be top positions of need IMO. I like Michael Pratt from Tulane for QB as a potential transfer. Some have mentioned Maalik Murphy from Texas sitting between Manning and Ewers. Jaylen Raynor of Arkansas ST leads all group of 5 QBs through week 5, thoughts on him. If it’s going to be a transfer, must be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodford 3,655 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I have zero intel but there is no way Maalik Murphy would come to Auburn. He’d be a fool to go anywhere that doesn’t have NFL guys on the OL. LSU or Alabama seem like more likely landing spots maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all "Developable" to an extent. I know...semantics...but I think determining where the "developable" Goal Post lay is important. Are we talking about being developed into an above average CFB QB....Top 5 SEC QB.... Day 1 draft pick.. a serviceable Game manager....a Gun Slinger.....Heisman Finalist...and on and on and on. What is the metric for which you deemed all 4 of our Scholarship QBs not "developable" and again what are you basing this on? I mean....we have only seen a very minuscule dose of HG.....virtually none of Hank Brown...so to say they are not "developable" just seems like a bit of a doltish take IMO. And maybe you were just joking and if so then by all means disregard this all. I just found it to be an odd conclusion.

AU80cruiser 1,102 Posted October 8, 2023 Author Share Posted October 8, 2023 (edited) Whether we have a guy that can be developed or not we still need a developed guy that has some escapability in the pocket until we get our Oline sorted out. I prefer a gunslinger for next season so atleast we can maybe develope our passing game and get more receivers onboard. We may lose some games but I want to see some exciting offensive play even if he throws a few picks. Edited October 8, 2023 by AU80cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think portal focuses need to be OL and on defense for 2024. If you go after a QB then HG and RA are probably gone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero quality P5 offers Statistical chance of becoming a goo P5 starter probably like 10%. Likely hood of him ever taking meaningful snaps at Auburn is extremely low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go after a QB then HG and RA are probably gone. It's going to be interesting. We've got A LOT of super seniors with eligibility and only 18 that have to leave. Think we have 82 scholarships with 2 walkons that need theirs clawed back. We have a lot of dead weight that will need to be told to hit the road. IMO we need another 15 tranfesrs again. QB (1) - Everyone wants wan but IDK if we can sell a good guy on our team w/ an incumbent starter in Thorne returning RB - Should be fine. I think Battie could even come back WR (2) - We can't rely on a bunch of freshman and a small slot WR in Fair. We probably need 2 TE - Everyone is eligible to come back. We have too many and 3 super seniors that are blockers only. OL (2-3)- We'll lose Britton, Young, Stutts, and Wade has a solid chance to go pro. We don't have a LT on our roster. We can probably replace Young with Lew and maybe get better. We need a guard in the portal. Maybe look for a young guy that is leaving a stacked school after his FR/Soph year to fill out lower classes DL (2) - I hope Harris doesn't leave. Going to need some DT/SDE player for at least depth. 2 Edge (1-2) - Still don't have rushers LB (2) - We might lose a spot against the 85 if Tolan doesn't land somewhere. I think Nixon is the only one that is out of eligibility. We kinda need some guys to roll out S (2) - Be interesting on who returns. But Puckett and SImpson RS in '19, 20 doesn't count, and only using their 3rd year of eligibility in '23. I'd guess Simpson might go pro moreso out of the two. Kuafman and Scott also back. Depth is bad after our top 4 Safeties, although Love looks promising DB (1-2) - Can never have enough. have some talented young guys but a top cover transfer would be nice. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win4AU 4,052 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I remember looking at the roster preseason and Auburn is going to need to replicate what it did last year in the portal. I’m hopeful the QB and WR situation will look better after a year in the system. If you bring in a new Qb and a couple new WRs that you expect to start then you are almost starting from scratch again. Dline and LB needs a lot more quality depth pieces. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
