Freshmen you think will see the field in 2016?

Submitted by Wolverine Devotee on

Rashan Gary, LaVert Hill, David Long, Devin Bush Jr., Eddie McDoom, Nate Johnson.

Redshirt everyone else, do not waste them for special teams. 

Gotta get some CBs going given our entire starting secondary may not be back in 2017 (thanks Hoke). 

I'm really interested to see takes on this.

I am still hoping to see Asiasi move to fullback and start crushing people from that spot this year. He is so fast and athletic for his size that he could easily be Houma Part Deux. It's a stretch, but would be badass to have a 280lb lead blocker bulldozing holes for our backs. McDoom will surprise people and Crawford might just start from the jump. I can't wait to see all the new talent, and I didn't even mention Gary yet... Who's got it better than us?!?

As we start to see more LEGIT 4-5 stars that are properly developed in JHs system, there is no reason to redshirt these players, only to see them leave for the NFL after 2 additional years, leaving both the redshirt and 4th years on the table.  Although Peppers' was due to injury, chances are we only have him playing 2 years for us.

It the player is physically developed enough and earns the playing time, he plays.  JH will replace these guys in each recruiting cycle (see OSU) with similiar talent.
