Strengths: New quarterback Jeremy Johnson is an upgrade in the passing game, and Duke Williams (if he stays eligible) is one of the top receivers for next year's draft. Plus, the Tigers have three talented running backs to fill the backfield void as well as three NFL-caliber O-linemen in Alex Kozan, Avery Young and Shon Coleman. They bring in new defensive coordinator Will Muschamp and get back dynamic D-lineman Carl Lawson, who missed last season.
