on offense Michigan certainly does not have anywhere near as advanced a passing scheme, as good a play-caller as Ryan Day, as good a QB as Stroud (having said that- I think JJ is more gifted), any one single RB who gets as many volume carries as Henderson, or 3 WR's as polished and smooth as OSU's - but they do have guys that can hit some home-runs and make plays.
At RB Blake Corum & Donovan Edwards can both pop long runs if they get into the open field- both these guys have afterburners. They both also catch the ball really well- especially Edwards. Haskins is the main ball carrier and starter and deservedly so- dude is a beast, but Michigan hasn't had backs with home-run hitting speed like Corum & Edwards since like the 90s or early 2000s.
At WR Roman Wilson and AJ Henning both have after burners. They can get behind a defense and eat up ground in a hurry. These are probably the two of the three fastest guys on their entire team along with Dax Hill. Wilson is a conventional WR, Henning is used more as a gadget, screen/reverse/return guy- but he's fast as shit.
Cornelius Johnson is a possession guy- but he's a lot faster than you think. He can really run for a guy that's pushing 6'3, 210. Andrel Anthony doesn't get quite as much playing time as the others but whenever they put him in games all he does is make plays- and he's so smooth and fluid and has great hands- only a freshman but he's going to be one to watch- star potential is big with him. Mike Sainistril is almost the forgotten guy- he's not big, he's not a 4.3 or 4.4 straight-line speedster- but he's very quick in and out of breaks and his acceleration is elite. He can make a big play every once in awhile.
At TE, Erick All is an emerging weapon that really hasn't been utilized anywhere near his full potential yet. Last year as a RS frosh he dropped basically every football that was thrown to him- this year he's worked on his hands and they've improved drastically- but he's been dealing with injuries and nowhere near 100%- but he's made some splash plays- this is a dude that has a lot of straight-line speed for a 6'4, 250 pound guy- he was booking it on that little 50-yard catch and run game-winner vs a really good Penn State defense in Happy Valley- he can make a play.
Obviously sucks not having #1 WR Ronnie Bell and obviously sucks even harder that admissions bungled the Xavier Worthy early enrollment and he's not here. Add those two guys to Michigan's roster right now....HOLY CHIT.
