Starting RB Cam Porter out for the season.  Huge blow

I thought they had pretty good depth at RB.  As I mentioned in the other thread, I'm much more concerned that Hunter Johnson is their best option at QB.

I guess you trust the coaches, and hopefully he has improved.  I really think Peyton Ramsey, who was a slightly above average QB, was the main difference between 2019 and 2020 for the Cats.  Hunter was pretty awful in 2019.  I thought Hilinski at least looked servicable at USC, so a surprising pick to me.
