Tajae Sharpe
Dan Malone features UMass WR Tajae Sharpe in the second-to-last UMass Top 25 series. When Sharpe and Blanchflower played together last year the Minutemen looked at times like they had an offense. This year, with lots more talent around him, Sharpe may have less catches, but look for him to be more of a playmaker, with more yards after catch. In 2013 UMass had 9 TD catches. Opponents had 22.
