<p>If I had to pick a starting 11 for offense after the 5th Annual 8th Grade All-Delaware Bowl, these would be my guys. There were a few positions that were a toss up between 2 studs but these players ended up getting the nod from me just off their performances last Friday night. Overall they made the best out of their limited opportunities. As a signal caller, this team would be able to set the edge a little better with a bruising inside run game and utilizing guards that can cut off angles for linebackers to fill gaps. The arm strength, calm presence to move the pocket affectively, would create a lot of space in the passing game to take advantage of zone coverages. The speed on the outside would be a headache to worry about screens and crossing routes.</p>
