“ He is the closest thing we have to a Bull Barge ,” Calhoun said of Charlie Pace ’ s younger brother . “ He is ultra physical . When he hits you , he wants to make sure you feel it .” Junior Jerron Blakely also can play in the middle . Daveon Hunt and Qway McCoy are holding down the outside linebacker positions in the Packers 3-4 set . McCoy has played receiver and defensive back for the Packers and possesses excellent speed . Calhoun likes how McCoy , now a senior , is adapting to his newest position . “ He is so athletic ,” Calhoun said . Other linebackers are KJ Solomon , Jar ’ dae Williams and Arnold Flearau Jr .
Trenton Dunbar , Carlos Moore and Raheim Mc- Bride are holding down the cornerback slots held by Tylan Brice and Nii Edwards last year .
Ry ’ Sheed Fuller and Calvin Washington also play the corners .
The safety position improved when Jack Luttrell moved to Moultrie with his assistant coach father Stan .
The younger Luttrell , who played the last two seasons at Hebron Christian , has already committed to perform collegiately at Tennessee .
“ He ’ s a natural athlete ,” Calhoun said of Luttrell ,
who is talented enough to also play receiver . “ He is very versatile . “ Tennessee is getting an outstanding player .” Lyric Thomas is back for his senior season and will hold down the other safety position . “ I am very excited about the way he is playing ,”
Calhoun said of Thomas . Will Madison and Bryce Toomer , son of Packers assistant Terel Toomer , also can man the safety positions .
The Packers are still deciding who will do the punting , but the place-kicking will be handled by sophomore Brett Fitzgerald .
The brother of former record-setting Packer and current Florida State kicker Ryan Fitzgerald , is coming off a productive freshman year and is much stronger this season .
George Ramirez , another sophomore , is the other place-kicker .
The other two keys to the place-kicking operation — snapper Will Tapscott and holder Eli Meads — are back .
The Packers will open the Calhoun era on Saturday , Aug . 20 , in the first Georgia-Florida Challenge , meeting Deerfield Beach ( Fla .) at 5 p . m . at Lowndes High ’ s Martin Stadium .
