Stock Report: Colorado’s biggest risers, fallers, surprises in fall camp
Summary
-
Colorado's interior defensive line was formidable during camp behind Tyler Moore, Dylan Manuel, Samu Taumanupepe and Quency Wiggins, but the unit remains vulnerable to injuries because its depth is thin.
-
Colorado's running game improved throughout camp as Micah Welch, DeKalon Taylor, Damian Henderson and JaQuail Smith all emerged, with Deion Sanders crediting a larger and more physical offensive line for the progress.
-
Elliot Arnold and summer addition Cadel Ayala remain in a field-goal competition, while long snapper is a larger concern with five walk-ons still battling for the job.
-
Julian Lewis clearly established himself as Colorado's starting quarterback, but backup Isaac Wilson was turnover-prone in camp and Kaneal Sweetwyne is still adjusting to the college game.
-
Makari Vickers is the likely starting nickel against Georgia Tech after emerging as a versatile leader who can cover like a corner, tackle like a safety and handle multiple alignments.
