1. The Aggies are set at receiver, running back in 2019

Let us start with the running back position now that everyone is panicking because Trayveon Williams has declared for the NFL Draft. As one of the best running backs to ever put on a Texas A&M uniform, the loss will be felt for sure. However, it isn’t a hole that will remain unfilled for long.

With the likes of Jashuan Corbin — best known for his 100-yard kick off return against Arkansas — as well as Vernon Jackson, Charles Strong Jr. and incoming freshman Isaiah Spiller, just to name a few, this team can figure it out.

On the receiver side, all of the Aggie wide outs will return for the 2019 season. The biggest names are Kendrick Rogers and Quartney Davis — both of which will be juniors for the upcoming season. Jhamon Ausbon will also be a junior. He has had a few bright moments for himself as well. Oh yeah, Jalen Preston is also in the mix as a redshirt freshman.

Simply put, this team is set on offense as Kellen Mond will likely be the starting quarterback once again and the majority of his targets will be returning for the 2019 season. The defense will have to reload and get things back together due to all of the seniors and juniors headed for the draft, but the offensive production remains constant for at the very least the 2019 season.
