I realize a number of these guys have not proven themselves at the Big Ten level yet, but it looks like the Gophers will have better depth at DB than they have had in a long time.
CB: Sherels, Collado
CB: Simmons, JC transfer Robinson
SS: Theret, Rallis, Wisconsin Transfer Royston? (probably his best chance to start is here)
FS: Brock, Dandridge, Recruit Kerry Lewis
Other options: Former HS QB's Johnny Johnson and Troy Stoudermire who both saw time this year(Mainly on special teams). Stoudermire played some on offense, so I am not sure if he's still considered a CB or not.
The Gophers are still recruiting several DB's including JUCO's Anthony Leon and Taikwon Paige plus Michael Carter.
That's really impressive depth for a team that used to struggle to find a 5th DB for the nickel defense.
