| |  | SAN JOSE: For the first time in 12 seasons, the San Jose Sabercats roster will not feature Mark Grieb. When the future first ballot Hall of Fame quarterback announced his intentions to retire on November 8, 2012, the SaberCats were quick to find a suitable replacement. They did just that with the addition of another future first ballot Hall of Famer, Aaron Garcia. Garcia will enter his AFL-record 18th season in 2013, but is still playing some of the best football of his career, passing for 4,985 yards and a career-high 118 touchdowns with the San Antonio Talons last year. Those numbers came while working with a rotating receiving corps that was plagued by injuries last season. Assuming the SaberCats stay healthy, Garcia should have as talented a lineup as he ever has in the League. Huey Whittaker, Hank Edwards, Samora Goodson and Fred Williams all return from last year's San Jose roster, while the team has also added former Jacksonville Sharks utility back Jamarko Simmons, versatile rookie Corbin Louks and one of Garcia's all-time favorite targets, Jason Willis. A pair of longtime San Jose standouts, James Roe and Ben Nelson, remain free agents. The offensive line will also be a strength of the team, where the club will be aided by the additions of four free agents - TJ Watkins, George Bussey, Michael Diaz and Raymond McNeil. If they can keep Garcia upright, there should not be any dropoff for the League's top-ranked offense from a year ago. On the defensive side of the ball, the team will have to deal with some significant losses. Losing the reigning Defensive Player of the Year, Joe Sykes, and massive nose guard Tim McGill to San Antonio will no doubt hurt. The team is also currently without fellow defensive linemen Gabe Nyenhuis and Jermaine Smith, both of whom remain unassigned. To fill the void, the team brought back four-year veteran Jason Stewart and added former Golden Gophers standout Cedric McKinley. Rookies Terrell Turner, Christian Tupou and Michael Ebbitt will also compete for playing time. The linebacker position will see some interesting competition as well, as All-Arena Mac backer Francis Maka is joined by Justin Lawrence and Justin Warren for 2013. The squad should be set with starters in the secondary, as incumbent playmaker Mervin Brookins is joined by veteran Ken Fontenette and former All-Arena selection J.C. Neal. That trio will be pushed by second-year man Jameel Dowling and rookies Andre Freeman and Will Billingsley. The team has yet to be assigned a kicker for 2013. | | JACKSONVILLE: Jacksonville has been one of the most consistent teams in the Arena Football League since joining the League in 2010. The team has won three consecutive South Division titles and one ArenaBowl championship during Les Moss' tenure as head coach. It should not be surprising that the squad is shaping up to be another winner in 2013. Quarterback Bernard Morris may be known more for his legs than his arm at this point in his career, but the team brought back a key piece of its ArenaBowl XXIV team in reigning Ironman of the Year Jeff Hughley. Always a big play threat, Hughley will provide yet another weapon for an already talented offensive set that includes Jeron Harvey, Terrance Smith and Rendrick Taylor. On the defensive side of the ball, the team will need to replace the production of line standouts Derrick Summers and Scooter Berry. To do that, the Sharks brought back defensive lineman Justin Parrish ' who spent last season in Pittsburgh after two years in Jacksonville ' and brought in trusty veterans Dusty Bear and Jerry Turner from Philadelphia and Georgia, respectively. All-Arena Mac linebacker Aaron Robbins will return for another season with the Sharks, as do defensive backs Bill Alford and LaRoche Jackson. Though veteran defensive back Micheaux Robinson remains unassigned at this point, the team has brought in a pair of All-Arena talents to solidify the defensive secondary for the start of camp. The additions of Tanner Varner and Tracy Belton should make an already daunting defense even more formidable in 2013. |
