OG Grant Cook: Cook (6'4", 318 pounds) started all 13 games for Arkansas last season and blocked for two 1,000-yard rushers and a 3,000-yard passer.
WR Curenski Gilleylen: Gilleylen (5'11", 213 pounds) started just two games during his college career at Nebraska.
CB Otis Merrill: Merrill (5'11", 188 pounds) was second-team all conference at Illinois State. He played three seasons there after one year at Wisconsin.
