Your opinions of players who step up starting this spring

Submitted by MichiganMan_24_ on

Read an article of guys to watch this spring and im interested to hear more opinions.. So, 3 players who you want to see and feel will carve out a spot for themselves this year.

1. Ty Isaac - I am not big on comparing these guys to proven stars but i must here.. Isaac has a Matt Forte build and skill set in my opinion.. Tall, thick, hands that can allow him to split wide, and deceptive speed and power.. I like the talent of our RB group and think all of them can bring production if the OL improves.. Isaac is the one who can do it all though and i have a feeling he will be a huge addition to the offense.

2.Maurice Hurst - Showed some real flashes of the quickness we heard about last year.. This team desperately needs a pass rush and if it can come from the inside of the line that is even better.. Another year of weight room may be the final move in taking a leap from seeing flashes to consistent production from Mo Hurst.

3.Jehuu Chesson - I say this in part to believing the OL improves with the coaching of Drevno.. I felt last season we were hesitant to setup deep routes because the confidence was not there with the OL.. Chesson plays hard and if the offense can click in a Harbaugh way that means the running game is churning and the TEs-HBacks are moving the chains.. That can open up some deep shots and Chesson has the ability to make plays.

Excited to see spring ball and the hope is strong

This thread might as well have been titled, "Who have been our most highly rated recruits?"  Because that's the names people are listing without fail.  Why?  We are still stuck in the mind set that stars matter more than development and heart.

Expect surprises, Harbaugh and this staff are going to loook for the toughest and most competitive players, it would not shock me to see several of the most highly rated recruits lose playing time to lower rated guys or even walk ons.  Some of these high school stars are not going to be able to hack it with Harbaugh.  Get ready for that and in the end it's going to make us a much better football team.
