Wrote this up in another thread, but once I read it back I thought it should have a standalone because I feel so strongly about this pick.
Maryland Injuries
2 starting wide receivers (out for year)
2 starting corners (1 out for year, 1 will return late in year)
2 starting linebackers (1 out for year, 1 will return late in year)
Starting quarterback (doubtful)
Starting tailback (doubtful)
Wake Forest was blown out 56-7 by Clemson and beat the terps (or the team formerly known as the terps) 34-10 last week. Wake Forest does not have an NFL prospect that I'm aware of on their defense- clemson has at least 4. Wake Forest was able to sack and re injure CJ Brown. Clemson is fresh off a loss to one of the top 3 teams in the country, they are still very much a top 10 team with NFL talent on both sides of the ball. This line is a GIFT.
