Personally, I don't think offers being sent out in April and May have much to do with how the staff feels about other players on their board. Over on Scout, as soon as an offer goes out people are on there asking Bob, Greg and nevada if this means that the staff does not feel good about their chances with someone else. I don't think that is the case, especially in May...if the staff deems a kid worthy of an offer, even if it is a token offer, then they are going to offer. People assume that Nathan Williams got an offer because the staff did not feel confident about Koger. Why would the staff continue to recruit Koger then (seeing as though JT was at his school the other day) knowing that the minute they offered Nathan he would accept? It just doesn't make sense.
Now as for the other theories put forth by my colleague crazybuckfan40, these recent offers may be more a reflection of the staff's feelings about the current production we are getting out of our DEs. I know the staff is preparing for all scenarios, but it is tough to determine whether or not Gholston is a flight risk at this point. He could get hurt tomorrow and miss his entire junior season (knock on wood).
