Too early for a speculative two-deep?
Nahhh.....go for it.
C Money's Post-National Signing Day & Updated 2018-19 Roster/Pre-Spring Speculative Two-Deep

Overall thoughts: We have so many different combinations we can go with on both the lines. Skill positions on offense seem set, with a surprise breakout at the third WR potentially. The potential in the back half of the defense is there, but unless we’ve had some big development from the 2nd year players at CB I’m still going to be holding my breath any time the opposing QB drops back to pass. The D line just needs to make sure there isn’t time for that to happen and it will all work out.
