National Signing Day: An Overview of Wake Forest's 2016 Recruiting Class

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons finished the 2016 recruiting class with a total of 22 players. The class was ranked 58th overall by 247 Sports, 63rd by Rivals, and 63rd by Scout. The Deacs signed 12 offensive players, 9 defensive players, and 1 specialist. Let's take a look at how well the Deacs recruited at each position, and how well they met their needs.

Quarterback

Wake Forest signed one quarterback in Jamie Newman. It's very typical for schools to take one quarterback per season. This is actually the first time since arriving at Wake Forest that Clawson and his staff have taken only one quarterback.
