DP should have a pretty good team they lost Bye but the only real football players they have are Nichols and Severson. Which is fine but they don't have much of a line.
i don't know if i'm 100% sure but i think DP has 2 returning all region picks from their line coming back next year in Vasichek and Higginbotham
I think the biggest question for DP is whose going to fill in for the linebacker positions? 2 years ago they had Lamb and Knudson, who both were 120 tacklers, and last year they had Bye who had like 140. This year I don't know who it is going to be?
Magner is a smart, young coach, who gets what needs out of his players. He puts them through he weights in the offseason and finds players to play in places that they usually don't play. Example, Lamb his junior year playing gaurd and senior year playing fullback.
Last year he put in the spread offense and Nichols and Severson thrived. They have Frederick, Brodell, and Ham coming back at 3 of the 4 wide out spots. Higgabothom at center and Vasicheck at gaurd coming back. Nichols there QB and Severson ther RB back. That is 7 out of 9 starts back on offense. They have a couple kids on there JV that have potential to play wide receiver and o-line so it will be interesting.
