Based on the 2014 season's juniors, below are the positions that need to be filled in 2016.
This, of course, assumes no attrition. It will change, but it's a guide for now.
Also, I would think that HCMM would look for a DT from the JUCO ranks in the 2015 and 2016 classes to fix the gaps we have at that position after the 2015 seniors graduate.
| POSITION | PROJECTED GRADUATION |
| Quarterback | 0 |
| Runningback | 2 (Abron & Powell) |
| Fullback | 0 |
| Wide Receiver | 1 (Spruce) |
| Tight End | 0 |
| Offensive Line | 4 (Cotner, Mustoe, Nembot, Wiefels) |
| Defensive Tackle | 3 (Henington, Solis, Tupou) |
| Defensive End | 1 (Kofavalu - might be 4th DT instead of DE) |
| Linebacker | 0 |
| Cornerback | 2 (Crawley, Hall) |
| Safety | 1 (Mosley) |
