3rd on the depth chart. I wonder how much of it is the ankle and how much is him not fully grasping the system. Many thought he would be a starter his freshman year.

I thought he would at least be ahead of Marlon Martinez and Thomas Perry behind Ingram

He’ll be fine. He’s only a RSFR

He's strong as an ox but uses all of his strength on twitter.

Who did you have him starting over? Surely not Ed or Chasen

Give baw some time. He’ll be a beast soon enough. Right now he’s fantastic depth

Might have something to do with him calling out O on multiple occasions

have heard that they're kinda just waiting for him to clean up his attitude or hit the road. sounds like he expected to be given the starting job just because he was able to push guys around in HS. I think if he gets his shite together he'll be one of the better players on the team in a couple years

Will go down as a bust. Poor attitude ever since his injury. Wouldn’t surprise me for him to opt out or transfer.

That is inline with what I have heard also. I would hate to see this happen. Before we moved Shanahan to C, he was above Kardell on G depth chart

Plus he was over rated coming in. Has a huge upper body with twig legs and short arms and not a very good natural athlete compared to someone like Ingram

“Many” trust the star system and believe everything they read.
There was no way he was going to start early, and then he was injured.

He needs to get his head straight, stop yapping so much, and focus on improving as a player or he will be a perpetual back up.

without a doubt. A depth chart is anything but all "ors"; it is designed to be the exact opposite.

An "or" can represent someone that has a depth position at multiple positions. For example, last year Magee was probably an "or" as LT while a starter at LG (before Ingram came back). Which means #2 could move into the LG spot if LT (Charles) had gone down.

I only see one of those on this depth chart and it is actually Cameron Wire. If Wire is in at LT, and the RT goes down the "or" kicks in and Dumervil goes in.

Or, as it appears on this depth chart, you have multiple players at one position hold the same spot. Kardell and Bradford are both in the #3 position for RG. They are both #2's. In coach speak the first one listed, Bradford, is getting recognition as #2 where on paper they are both #2s. Which means if Bradford is in use somewhere else, Kardell is the defacto #2.
