St. Brown and Wedington will play if they are as good as advertised. They play positions where we play multiple people and we don't have an abundance of proven returning talent in RB and WR so they should see the field. They are also the positions where freshman tend to play the earliest and make the biggest impact.  I don't think any of our elite WRs or RBs over the last decade redshirted.  Didn't Gerhart, Gaffney, Taylor, CMAC, Love all play as true frosh? Same thing with Ty, Owusu, Irwin, Whalen? Not sure about Baldwin.  I could argue that if you don't play RB as a true frosh, you aren't likely going to be that good because elite playmaking talent is obvious.
