I have updated the lists since there have been so many changes this month at WR and TE. I am not sure anyone likes my format but it helps me to follow the changes that occur.
WRs
David Dudeck SR WR 5-11 194
Harrison Jackson SR WR 6-2 207
Bobby Swigert SR WR 6-0 199 (Being held out for safe keeping.)
Drew Barksdale JR WR 5-11 198
Sherman Alston SO WR 5-6 163
Nolan Borgersen FR WR 6-3 200 (Dinked up and not playing yet.)
Charlie Callinan SO WR 6-4 224 (Dinked up and not playing yet.)
Thadd Smith SO WR 5-9 175
Elijah Robinson FR WR 6-2 200
Chase Pankey FR WR 6'1" 165
Ben Glines FR WR 6'1" 195 (Out with Broken Collar Bone for 6 to 8 weeks. Likely red-shirt.)
Nat Dixon SO WR 6-3 185 (Left Team)
TEs
Cameron Croteau JR TE 6-4 243
Austin Chapman SO TE 6-3 232
Louie Addazio SR TE 6-3 252. (Dinked up and not practicing.)
Michael Giacone SR TE 6-5 254 ( ACL injury and out for season. Likely will red-shirt.)
Brendan Nosovitch JR 6'1' 220
Tommy Sweeney SO TE 6-5 246
Jake Burt FR TE 6'5" 230
Chris Garrison FR TE 6'4" 212
With Dixon leaving, Giacome going down for the season, Glines out for the first six to nine weeks, Norsovitch transfereing from South Carolina to BC and moving Johnson to receiver from QB, there have been a whole lot of changes to TE and WR over the last month.
I think that Callinan continues to start and will play a lot. He is almost a tight-end in size and is a great blocker. With Giacone out for the season, I think we see some new formations with Callinan, Norsovitch and maybe Garrison moving inside on passing downs to give them another play maker. I think Sweeney and another player who is a good blocker becomes the blocking tight end with Addazio seeing some time as well. If Norsevitch can adjust quickly to BC's systems, he could become a very key player by the middle of the season.
I think that Adazzio and Fitch are trying to find play makers so I see Outlaw, Alston, Swigert, Robinson and Callanan and one or two other rotating. I say others because with three to four receiver sets, they will need at least six to seven receivers and I feel certain one or more of the young receivers will emerge.
Outlaw is going to have to get playing time at receiver with Hillman and Willis getting most of the touches at RB. Alston is going to also be a starter. Robinson is a great athlete so receiver is actually shaping up to be a team strength. Unlike the offensive line where team work and cohesiveness are priorities, at WR talent, speed and skill are the most important. Wade, Flutie or Smith will find the talented receivers.
Yes, Dudeck will play and play a lot. Despite his limitations, he has earned playing time. Adazzio will reward David for being one of the good ones. He is also clutch and a great example to the younger players. Jackson and Barnsdale could also see a lot of playing time but I haven't heard much of them of late.
I think that Adazzio now has the skill position guys to compete at receiver. If the Offensive Line can somehow come together, BC could really surprise some people. Remember, A lot of people wanted Johnson at WR. We all know that Alston is a game changer. Swiggart was our best receiver three years ago. Outlaw has amazing hands and is elusive. Callinan is huge and the fastest of the big receivers from last year.
