This is my best guess as to how things may sit right now going into camp. I figure I'll try and update this as often as it seems like guys are getting ahead of guy and obviously how the freshmen start to find their place. I'll also add the new heights and weights when they are updated on the roster.

I put a note next to that...we really don't have a "depth chart" for RBs it seems. We'll just go with the hot hand like normal.

Not bad. I'de swap Landry and Wright and maybe move fehoka up. Our LB core is going to be nasty the next few years.

I could see it, just think Wright might lead this going into camp...it's a tough call at WR.

In front of Turner? I just don't know what side he'll play on, but the plan is to redshirt him either way.

Great list. Correction: Washington plays G and I believe Edingburgh plays T.

I really like the idea of Hill playing mostly FB this season before he transitions to RB next year. If Hill has good hands, he will be another weapon and could log more playing time at FB than the 3rd or 4th RB.

Pretty solid.

The running backs are nearly unpredictable so disregard any criticism there

Hill over Magee IMO, but yes they all are capable, and it really doesn't matter.

While he did, I think the coaches wil leant to redshirt him and let the upper classmen take care of second team duties. It's an extremely rare occurrence for us to play a true freshman on the OL.

So you have a guy that has never seen the playbook until a few days ago and the season is alittle ove 4 weeks away ahead of two guys that have been in the system and studying the playbook.

Call it a future projection there. Washington has been so hobbled up I don't think anyone knows where he will play for sure. As far as Edinburgh goes he could play a number of positions, just plugged him into somewhere for now since he'll redshirt anyways.

I just went ahead and put him there because that was the only point of bringing him in. It's quite clear why Les did it, he isn't comfortable with Rivers or Randall if Mett gets hurt.

Hilliard and Hill will climb the depth chart exponentially. I expect they will be 3-4 or 2-3 depending on injury situation week to week.
