I'd give Slade a shot at slot too.

Posted by: @roaminglion

QB: Clifford
RB: Brown & Cain (two man rotation)
WR Z: Dotson (Guessing Dotson moves to slot)
WR H: ? (Up for grabs: George / Sullivan-Brown)
WR X: ? (Up for grabs: Dunmore / Lambert)
TE: Friermuth
OT: Walker
OG: Miranda
C: Menet
OG: Thorpe
OT: Fries

DE: Oweh
DT: Mustipher
DT: Hansard
DE: Toney (unless he declares)
WLB: Parsons
MLB: Smith (Darkhorse pick, I think Smith will move to MLB... Played it in HS)
SLB: Luketa or Dixon (Smith if he doesn't move to MLB)
CB: Castro-Fields
S: ? (Up for grabs: Sutherland / Brisker /or the freshman Jennings)
SS: Wade
CB: ? (Up for grabs: Ellis / Wilson / Porter Jr.)

I'd imagine the defense will have some shuffling early in the season at the up for grabs CB & S positions.

Looks about right...

I think you will also see Ford in that rotation.

As someone said Slade might get some reps at slot plus if coach KC ads a screen game Slade could come up big there.  The two 2020 RBs they have coming in could be on red-shirt.

WR room will be interesting, I hope Parker lights a fire of competition for the spots.  This could be a dominant group for PSU.

TE is a no brainier... Time for Zack to become that Red zone threat. Hope coach KC see the strength of this group.

Slade in the slot could work really well, hope they try it out!

I’m proud of Slade and his attitude of thinking he’s going to fight for some playing time and he’s done it. 
We lost 19 Sr and had 5 transfer out last year and won 11 games and the Cotton Bowl. I guess it’s just sinking in on how good we were last year and we should be better this year. It’s sweet being a Penn State fan that’s for sure. 

IMHO, Slade's attitude in this day of the portal is very refreshing 🤗
