Next season, I think that we'll see a minimum of two new starters. And it is possible (though not likely) that we could have 5 new starters on that OL. So what do you think it will look like??
2003 (tentative): Dixon/Nails/Ruddy/Perry/Wade
2004: Smith/Dixon/McKinney/Nails/Wade
........Smith/Nails/McKinney/Whitley/Wade
Obviously the first one is our choice. The guard lineup is actually what we're hoping for this year. The second choice is also very nice. But it leaves us scrambling for depth, as we'll have lost three veterans.
I think Perry is surely a gonner. And Ruddy will not sit on the bench. So he's probably gone too. As you can see, I'm banking on Wade being re-signed (it will happen), Smith stepping in at LT, and Nails coming back strong.
