This is obviously nothing official, just a comprehensive idea of what I believe the depth chart will look like in Lambeau against Wisky. Here's to an injury-free remainder of fall camp too.

OFFENSE
QB: Harris, Etling
RB: Fournette, Guice, D. Williams, Brossette
FB/H: Moore, Mouton, Ducre
WRX: Dupre, Chark, Ferguson
WRY: Dural, Anderson, Davis
TE: Jeter, Smith, Moreau
LT: Teuhema/Malone, Brown/Okeke
LG: Weathersby/Boutte/Brumfield, Magee
C: Pocic, Dodd
RG: Clapp, Boutte/Brumfield, Campbell
RT: Teuhema/Weathersby, Okeke/Brown


DEFENSE
Buck: Key, Martin, Thornton
DE: Neal, Clark, Lawrence
NT: Valentine, Gilmore, E. Alexander
DE: Godchaux, Herron, Logan
OLB/F: Bower, Thompson (when healthy), Voorhies/Patterson
ILB 1: Beckwith, D. White
ILB 2: Riley, D. Alexander
CB: T. White, Jackson, Paris
FS: Jefferson, Battle, Monroe
SS: Adams, Thomas (nickel situations), Lewis
CB: Toliver, Smith, Fulton


SPECIAL TEAMS
PK: Delahoussaye, Culp
K: Gamble
P: Growden
LS: Ferguson
KR: Guice, Jackson, Williams
PR: T. White, Jackson, Chark


This is all based on what we've seen from Miles and reports coming out of fall camp. The offensive line could be shuffled around quite a bit, but this looks to be the most logical. There will probably 5-8 talented freshmen that will be heavily counted on this year as well. Based on the depth chart alone, we are immensely talented and deep which should set up for an exciting year.

Looks good
I think drake Davis might make his way higher on the chart at WR

Those DBs are so sick

3-4 defense is going to take time to get used to

I got Gilmore starting at NT for Wisky. However, Valentine will eventually takeover

Yeah I agree
But I'm thinking Valentine sees about 30% of the snaps in game 1 and sees more and more each after that


Hopefully anyway

I can agree with that actually. It's safe to say that both will play a lot at that position against Wisconsin, though.

I'd put Donte Jackson higher on the depth chart. They have high hopes for him.

It seemed obvious weathersby was slated to be the starting right tackle. And I thought our most complete tackle from a pass blocking perspective. Did something change this week?

Good point. I'll edit to put him over Paris. He will likely play multiple positions.

Yeah, I also thought Toby was locked in at RT.

Someone posted a thread yesterday I believe that Teuhema might actually play RT as opposed to LT. Which would most likely prevent Weathersby from starting, but may give him more leeway to move around a little.

A few things:

1. You've got Dee Anderson twice. One of those should be Drake Davis. You should put the Z position there too since we'll probably see more 3 wide reciever packages this year. That would likely be Chark, Davis, Ferguson/Dillon.

2.Donovaughn Campbell is playing RG. George Brown Jr is another guy that could see playing time at tackle.

3.MJ Patterson is likely ahead of Devin Voorhies at the OLB position.

4. Donte Jackson is definetly ahead of Ed Paris and will play boundary when we go nickel with Tre White sliding inside.

Having Jackson and Guice on returns, that's sick, so much talent!

247 had Fulton the 2nd corner in the country
It's amazing how deep we are at db that he is 3rd string

I agree, we are loaded at DB. I also thought about adding Paris to safety. He played both in high school and definitely has the ability to play safety in college. He could add some depth at either safety position.

He's a strong safety.
