The SEC is loaded with talent, but no team is flawless.

Each roster throughout the conference has at least one area of concern as we approach the start of spring practice next month, and SDS highlighted those questionable position groups a week removed from National Signing Day.

Alabama — Quarterback: Alabama must find a new starting quarterback for the second year in a row, and although Jacob Coker has plenty of name recognition we have no on-field evidence that he will live up to the hype as a starting quarterback at a major program. For what it’s worth, he lost the quarterback competition last season to a player who was initially signed to play defensive back. Coker could turn out to be a star in the SEC, but for now that uncertainty makes quarterback somewhat of a weakness on a team loaded with talent at every position.

Arkansas — Wide receiver: The Razorbacks operate a run-heavy offense, so this weakness may not hold them back as much as it would on another team, but the Hogs’ wide receivers lack the explosiveness many other wideouts throughout the SEC possess. Keon Hatcher is a consistent threat on the outside and rising sophomore Jared Cornelius showed flashes throughout his rookie season, but all in all the Arkansas receiving corps is far from dynamic.

Auburn — Defensive back: The Tigers have some promising names in their secondary, yet they finished third from the bottom of the SEC in pass defense in 2014 and now stand to lose starters Jermaine Whitehead and his six interceptions last year as well as Jonathon Mincy. The addition of Will Muschamp as defensive coordinator could give the unit a boost, but until proven otherwise Auburn ought to be nervous about its secondary entering 2015.

Florida — Quarterback: The Jeff Driskel era failed miserably, and now he’s on his way to Louisiana Tech to salvage the final season of his collegiate career. Treon Harris was in over his head as Driskel’s replacement last season, and fellow quarterback competitor Will Grier is unproven in the SEC. Regardless of who wins the job, the Gators will once again have to compensate for a quarterback still learning on the fly.

Georgia — Quarterback: The Bulldogs got all they could have hoped for and more out of first-year starter Hutson Mason last year, but he’s since graduated. Now the position is wide open, and for a team with enough talent at every other position to contend in a wide open SEC East right now, finding the right guy to assume the starting job under center will be a major priority for Mark Richt and the Dawgs.

Kentucky — Offensive line: Kentucky’s offensive line allowed the second-most sacks and fourth-most tackles for loss of any line in the SEC last season, and it committed more than a few penalties along the way (especially false starts). The unit has since lost its anchor in four-year starting left tackle Darrian Miller, and it will have to find its groove quickly to help Kentucky continue moving forward in 2015.

LSU — Quarterback: Despite having one of the most talented rosters in the SEC, LSU lost five games in 2014 due in large part to horrendous quarterback play from Anthony Jennings, who led a passing offense worst than Vanderbilt’s (and the ‘Dores used four different starting quarterbacks in 2014). The Tigers will once again try rely on either Jennings or backup and former five-star signee Brandon Harris in 2015, and the lack of adjustments made at the position have to make Tigers fans nervous.

Mississippi State — Safety: No team in the SEC allowed more completions of 30-or-more yards last season than Mississippi State, which has since bid farewell to both its starting safeties in Justin Cox and Jay Hughes. If the Bulldogs cannot find answers at the position quickly, perhaps in the form of four-star 2015 signee Jamal Peters, it could run the risk of allowing just as many explosive completions in 2015, which does not bode well for the Bulldogs.

Missouri — Wide receiver: Outside of Bud Sasser and Jimmie Hunt, the Tigers failed to establish another consistent receiving threat in an otherwise stagnant passing offense. Both Sasser and Hunt have since graduated, and the lack of explosive options on the outside could once again limit the Mizzou offense in Year 3 of the Maty Mauk era.

Ole Miss — Linebacker: It seems baffling that the nation’s No. 1 scoring defense in 2014 could have any weaknesses on that side of the ball, but following the departures of 2014 starters Serderius Bryant and Deterrian Shackelford, paired with the decommitment of top linebacker recruit Leo Lewis, the Rebels could be in trouble at the linebacker position. Denzel Nkemdiche’s return for his senior season will help, but it remains to be seen who will play alongside him in 2015.

South Carolina — Quarterback: Dylan Thompson put up big numbers in 2014, leading the SEC in passing, but he couldn’t compensate for a frustratingly inconsistent South Carolina defense during a 7-6 campaign. Thompson is now gone, and the position is wide open in a manner similar to Georgia’s quarterback job. If there was ever a coach capable of developing a new, unproven quarterback it’s Steve Spurrier, but until South Carolina can settle on a starter the position will be perceived as a major weakness in Columbia.

Tennessee — Offensive line: Tennessee’s offensive line allowed the most sacks and tackles for loss in the SEC in 2014, and although Joshua Dobbs’s mobility helped limit the damage late in the season the line itself was still porous. Yes, the Vols signed a number of promising offensive line recruits this year, but those players are not only unproven, but they all play the same position: offensive tackle. Until the new recruits show they can hack it in the SEC, some of which will have to change positions and move inside, Vols fans should still be nervous about their line.

Texas A&M — Safety: The Aggies defense struggled mightily in 2014, due in large part to inconsistent play from safeties Howard Matthews and Floyd Raven, both of whom have since graduated. Texas A&M was second-to-last in the SEC in pass defense, and having to install two new starting safeties won’t make John Chavis’ job any easier as he tries to limit damage from the back-end of his defense. The Aggies signed two four-star safety recruits this winter and a third three-star recruit who enrolled in school early to get up to speed, but if those players cannot make an immediate impact the A&M secondary will be a concern once again.

Vanderbilt — Wide receiver: The Commodores lack of explosive wideouts could be due in large part to the team’s four different starting quarterbacks last season, but for a team to be led in receiving by its tight end is somewhat humbling. It’s not like tight end Steven Scheu was a world-beater; he’s good, but not a superstar. And for what it’s worth, the Commodores backup tight end — Davis Dudchock — was also top four on the team in receiving last year. C.J. Duncan made his presence felt as his freshman season progressed, and he could be a true No. 1 option down the line. But behind him the cupboard is bare, and even as Johnny McCrary develops if he has no one to throw to his job won’t be made any easier.
