QB: Mett, Jennings
I know I will offend the JennSwag faithful but Jennings does not see the field this year unless needed. I believe he and Rettig RS this year. The caveat to that is if the offense sputters and needs a different direction (i.e. more running from the QB). I give that a 65/35 shot right now.
You also have to consider that if LSU does want to run the ball from the QB slot then what does Bolden bring to the table. A senior QB that has started games in major Div I situation vs a true freshman.

Don't even have Dwayne "The Bathtub" Thomas as one of your CB's.
not legit.

Mills, Collins, Thomas and white will be the top 4 corners
Posted on 5/18/13 at 1:15 pm to CaptainColeSlaw
I think Collins and not White is gonna start the other CB position. Other than that, your depth chart is spot on.

Watch out for K. Holmes. He looked pretty good in the spring game.

Also Dillon Gordon at TE had some moments in the spring game.
I am rooting for Avery Peterson to contribute this season, but he might be a year away--made some nice catches in the spring, but I think the one in the spring game was out of bounds.

Collins will start over Tre White
Also don't be surprised it Welter starts at ILB

Welter will not start at MLB IMO. Barrow is just more experienced, faster, and more physical.

What about Collins? We will see soon enough. 
Posted on 5/19/13 at 9:02 am to CaptainColeSlaw
Allen over Hunter at the DE opposite Rasco.
He outperformed him all Spring.

Its good to see some football guys wanna discuss the team in here. Thanks Capt for your post. I didnt realize the upperclassmen depth we had starting either. Is it the leftovers from everyone leaving or our new stars?
They really want to leave Barrow at OLB because of his coverage skills. It wouldnt shock me to see Welter in there at MLB for the first two games. But he does seem indecisive and not physical enough at the point of attack. But we are used to watching Minter, who was outstanding at both. So Im still holding out hope that we can leave Barrow at OLB and not get ran all over up the middle.
I dont see White winning that job, but Ive never seen him in pads either. It will be a tall task for him to win that job before midseason IMO.
I didnt realize how young we were in the backup positions of the secondary before your post. Spot on again, Capt.
It seems, we can not afford depth issues anywhere except OLB, this yr on D.

DE-Allen is ahead of Hunter

The spring depth chart had Allen behind Rasco. Then Rasco had surgery and Allen started the Spring Game. I'm all for Jordan getting the starting position. Pulling for him.
Posted on 5/19/13 at 6:27 pm to CaptainColeSlaw
Welter is starting in the middle and Barrow on the outside. Allen is slated to start over Hunter.
Not sure why you put White as a starter he's not even on campus. Mills and Collins have a big jump on those spots, with Thomas and Holmes in support.

I like most of it.
Collins will be the starter ahead of White. But, considering we use an extra DB in almost all of our D, i expect White to play a lot. The nickel will either be Mills or White, and the other will be the CB opposite of Collins. So I expect White to see the field alot. But, Collins is the starter. Chief has been grooming him for this season and hes the type of CB we always have on the field. Tall, rangy, and physical. I expect Collins to have a breakout year and could possibly go pro after this season.
Man, Welter has some huge fans on here. I seriously doubt he is the starter. Spring game he got destroyed by 2nd OL and a walk on center. Had 2 assisted tackles at MLB. Thats not what you want to see. The coaches gave him every opportunity to prove to them that he can start, and I doubt he did enough to earn that spot. He might start out there, but I would be surprised if he holds onto that spot past the first few games. And Barrow is a great cover LB, so during passing situation we usually have 2 LBs and the rest DB, Barrow will be 1 of those LBs. Just because he starts in the middle doesnt mean he cant move over during passing situation. Minter was our MLB this past season with good cover skills and he had a few picks. I expect us to use Barrow just like Minter.
Why do people still insist JWright is a "special" player. Hes been here for a while and hasnt done anything. Same with Boone. Our WRs will be Landry, OBJ, Dural, and Leslie. They are the best 4 WRs we have.
And it seems that a lot of people have already forgotten about Kendall Beckwith. Hes not even in the OP depth chart. We dont know what he will play(DE or LB) but I think this kid will see the field before a lot of the guys that are on the depth chart. Already a pretty good sized kid, and can run sideline to sideline and hit with the best of them.
Sure, TJones may start, but I expect Debo to play more. Everybody likes to talk about TJones experience and all that. Yeah, hes been in the system longer, but hasnt had that much game experience except on special teams. Only made 2 career starts. He was supposed to be the starter last year, but didnt take care of his school work and ended up being suspended. Thats letting the team down. TJones is s senior and only has 37 total tackles. Debo in 1 season had 27. Been in the system longer, but hasnt done much more than Debo has in 1 year. If Debo has a good summer and adds some weight, he will be playing more than TJones. Our best 3 LBs are Kwon, Barrow, and Debo. Period.
The only DE we know of that will be the starter 100% is Rasco. We will most likely be using a heavy rotation at the other spot with Hunter, Allen, Beckwith(if a DE), and Herron.
