Anthony Nash

Nash brings a terrific 6-foot-5, 200-pound frame to the table, but somehow managed only one touchdown reception last season. That seems destined to change as the Blue Devils lost 11 of their 18 receiving scores from a year ago. Nash is a solid jump ball target who can stretch the field, snagging passes of 34 yards or more in four of five games during a stretch of 2015. During that stretch, Nash topped 100 yards twice. Consistency may never be Nash's forte, and he's unlikely to be a volume receiver, but Nash has scoring upside, and should see his touchdown totals rise in 2016. TE Erich Schneider - The Blue Devils have a sound past of tight end production, and Schneider appears next in line to continue that tradition. Last season, he managed three touchdowns on 15 catches while splitting time with Braxton Deaver. Their combined production was 36 catches, 306 yards and five scores and Duke must replace three of their top five receivers from a season ago. That combined number could be Schneider's floor, which makes him a reasonable gamble at a position that can be feast or famine.
