Some notes from a few well connected sources:
- Sadowsky will have a major impact this year as a freshman, legit shot to start at MLB
- Brahmer flipping ISU from Nebraska kinda went under the radar but we may see (as early as this year) just how big of a get that was and just how good he can be
- Onyedim, Orange and Singleton offer a great 'top 3' in terms of stopping the run, need a few pass rushers to step up
- Depth spots at WR will be determined during camp, lots of talent, but young and need consistency
- The top 5 guys in the secondary is likely the best we have ever had at ISU.
- Hufford and Miller should out-preform expectations
