With this much depth at WR, it would be nice to have some back-up at TE. When Turner couldn't find H-B or anybody else, he could hit a Gronkowski over the middle.
Seeing as the OL is a big question mark, look for quick hitches to the backs, Scott and Meggett.

hard to believe Emani Lee-Odai is 3rd on the depth chart. Just tells you how deep we really are at WR.

That's actually a nice looking collection of WRs. Not experienced, maybe prone to some drops, but overall a very promising group. TE is the worrisome position. Nobody seems to have stepped up there.
Nonetheless, if you have an experienced QB who knows the offense, you can get by with quite a bit of inexperience at other positions, particularly in college. In the pros, maybe not.
Expect some fumbles, but give them a few games and this could be a better passing offense than last season.
