I've had a few of you request this, so I wanted to put this depth chart together. Obviously, there will be a number of new players added over the next few months.

Also, this is based on the personnel that we know is still on the roster.

Offense

QB: Landry Lyddy, Jack Turner, Evan Bullock*

RB: Marquis Crosby, Charvin Thornton, Keith Willis*

WR: Cyrus Allen, Solomon Lewis, Zyion Claville

WR: Julien Lewis, Kyle Maxwell, Dakota Williams*

WR: Smoke Harris, Tahj Magee, Matthew McCallister, Dedrick Latulas*

TE: Nate Jones, Kendrick Rucker, John Locke, Eli Finley*

LT: Dakota White, Biron Rossell, Erron Bean, Troy Smith*

LG: Bert Hale, Joe Ta'ase

C: Ray Kelly, Landon Nelson, Roy Brackins*

RG: Jerren Gilbert, Elijah Bowser, Ja'Marion Kennedy*

RT: Carson Bruno, Jonah Brewster, Kenneth Bannister, Hayden Christman*, Keystone Allison*

Notes on Offense

- Injured/Out: QB Matthew Downing, TE/WR Devonta Lee, WR Marlion Jackson, C Abraham Delfin

- There are 40 offensive players on scholarship (not including Jack Turner, it's not certain he gets one) based on the numbers that we have.

- Need J Lew to emerge as a playmaker at WR. Get that, and you can put together a decent product with improved QB play.

- 8 returning starters on offense

Defense

DE: Deshon Hall, DJ Johnson

DT: Keivie Rose, Shaq Spears

DT: Rasheed Lyles, Zion Nason, Lip Whitaker*

DE/OLB: Mykol Clark or J'Dan Burnett, Charlie Robinson* or Obi Okeke*

ILB: Hugh Davis, Zy Ford

ILB: Brevin Randle, Colton Deckard* or Demardrick Blunt*

OLB/Nickel: Cecil Singleton, Joriell Washington

CB: Willie Roberts, Jhamal Shelby, Ked Harper*

CB: Cedric Woods or RJ Johnson or Jakelyn Morgan, Devontae Mozee, David Webb*

S: Myles Heard*, Cam Hill*

S: Michael Richard* or Jacob Fields*

Notes on Defense

- I did not include Eric Randall.

- There are only 28 players on scholarship on defense.....Cumbie said last off-season they want 41 on both sides of the ball.

- 6 returning starters on defense

- SCARY

Special Teams

K: Jacob Barnes or Buck Buchanan

P: Patrick Rea or Arlind Bengu

DS: ???

Final Notes

- If you have 13 spots available, you could easily make the argument to give every single one to the defense. You think last year's defense was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet!!

- The * guys are new signees or transfer commitments

- Bold are returning starters

- Share your thoughts!
