2020 AAC Preseason Position Previews: Linebackers
Photo by Benjamin Solomon/Getty ImagesWill there be any stars in the front seven this year? The AAC boasts quality talent up front, but we haven’t seen someone like Shaquem Griffin or Ed Oliver since they left. Many teams should adopt a “by committee” approach this year, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Relying on one player can be a hindrance at times (just ask Oliver and Houston), so depth can be a valuable asset. More cohesive units tend to be better anyways, and the AAC coaches know the explosive offenses they’ll face on a weekly basis. So maybe not having a star is better?
Other positions: QB, RB, WR/TE, OL, DL
