1. WR Troy Franklin, Oregon Â
Franklin is skinny, but he’s tall and rangy and can adjust to any thrown ball. He’s going to be in the mix early and put up some numbers.
*****
2. DE Korey Foreman, USCÂ Â
Foreman didn’t get to play spring ball and has been battling injuries, but there is no way he doesn’t see the field and no way he doesn’t have an impact.
*****
3. QB Sam Huard, Washington
Huard wasn’t named the starter, but the five-star quarterback could still have the biggest impact of any true freshman on the roster. He will see time.
*****
4. TE Jermaine Terry, CalÂ
Terry isn’t at a position of need for Cal as the Golden Bears have plenty of veterans, but he’s a talented enough blocker and receiver and big enough to move up the depth chart as the season moves on.
