The Way Too Early Depth Charts**

Recommended Posts

Offense:

QB - Sam Darnold / PJ Walker / Tommy Stevens 

HB - CMC / Chuba Hubbard -- Depth -- Rodney Smith, Trenton Cannon

FB - Tommy Tremble (based on personnel package)

TE - Dan Arnold / Ian Thomas & Tommy Tremble (based on personnel package)

WR - DJ Moore / Robbie Anderson / Terrace Marshall / David Moore / Shi Smith

OL - Brady Christensen / Pat Elflein / Matt Paradis / Deonte Brown / Taylor Moton (I think Brady has a chance being a bit older, and developed physically, Brown's track record at ALA can't be denied so I think he edges out Miller) -- Depth -- Erving, Little, Dailey, Scott, Miller

--------------------------

Defense: (Showing as a 4-3)

DL - Burns / Brown / Jones / Gross-Matos -- Depth -- Fox, Haynes, Roy, Nixon, Miller

LB - Shaq Thompson / Denzell Perryman / Hasaan Reddick -- Depth -- Jermain Carter (Area of need)

CB - Jaycee Horn / Donte Jackson / AJ Bouye -- Depth -- Troy Pride / Rashaan Melvin / Keith Taylor

S - Jeremy Chinn / Juston Burris -- Depth -- Kenny Robinosn, Sam Franklin, Myles Hartfield

-----------------------------

In my opinion another off-ball LB, and veteran safety are needed, I feel good most elsewhere on the roster.

Again, I think Erving is starting over Miller and this over a rookie as well. I think Erving and Elflein are starters with Moton and Paradis. That last spot is likely LT where I do think Christensen is expected to win it. If not, maybe Erving moves out there or Scott. I hope we didn’t sign Erving to that deal and not expect him to be a day 1 starter. 

I think Erving was brought in for LT:  

"they wanted me to come in here and compete to play left tackle. That's something I've been striving for and wanting to do for a long time in my career"

The rook will be there as a replacement in case of injury or poor play.

Trent Scott did a pretty decent job filling it at left tackle last year.

I read a comment that was one of the reasons why the Panthers were comfortable trading down. They didn't feel that some of the tackles taken after the first round were significantly better than Scott.

I think the rookie OT, Brady Christensen, will get a shot to start. He was the highest graded OT in college last year. Erving, really wasn't that good in Dallas, tbh. If I was going to bet, I say Christensen is starting by the end of the year.

Y’all think Hubbard automatically goes to CMC’s backup?

I think barring some injury or unforeseen off-the -field issue he will be. Its obvious he is well liked by Rhule. If he learns the offense and performs decently he will be the #2, I believe. I have always liked Bonnafon. He always seems to show out in spot duty, but for whatever reason he seems an afterthought. I think Smith will be #3, unless Cannon beats him out due to special teams play.

I can't see Deonte Brown as a starter yet.  The dude is a house but he still has some work to do.  I'm sure he'll play in some packages as a rookie but I don't think he's ready to replace a 7 year vet like Miller who played decently last season.

Miller is a RG, and Brown is a LG. Someone said a few years ago that switching from RG to LG was like trying to wipe your ass with your left hand; it's possible, but it ain't natural. (I'm wildly paraphrasing, but you get the gist). I agree with your sentiment though. Brown will have a hard time beating out Elfein and/or Erving for LG. Since both vets have been injury prone, I think he'll get his shot sooner or later.

I also think that Erving may be day 1 LT, although Christensen has a much better chance at starting than Brown does.

Does anyone think we might use Tommy stephens like taysom hill.  If not, I don't know that he can make the 53.  I would root for him though. 

I'm not sure if Stevens will make the team either. Brady didn't have him to start the season with last year, so it'll be interesting if they scheme something up for him or not. If not he best find a way to contribute on special teams or he will be gone, unless he can beat out Walker/Grier for a backup spot.

    • That argument could be used for actual trolls. “If you don’t like it find somewhere else to post” is just silly. Some of us are just letting you know, you are sounding like a broken record on these threads. It’s just some constructive criticism. You don’t have to change your ways. I doubt you will. Just wanted to make sure you were aware. Feel free to deflect and use one of those GIFs again. 
    • It went from he has to jump to he has to bend his hips. That’s changing it. I showed you clips of him throwing deep without jumping which means he doesn’t always have to. I liked and like Stroud better so I’m not really a Bryce defender. Just think you don’t have to make up things when critiquing our QB like he has to jump to throw it deep. There is plenty of ammo there without those exaggerations. Oh yeah the “you don’t know ball” argument. Classic. 
    • I get the rookie QB formula and fully expected to see it implemented. Oh well. For the run game there was no or very little under center stuff until a good ways into the year. At least that is how I am remembering it. And no deep throwing - so stacked boxes which you can say chicken or egg on why.  Hard to run like that.  The QB that people said was so great was pulled for a designated Hail Mary thrower. That’s pretty unusual. And may speak to why we saw few deep balls in some part, along with the OL. To ignore that stuff means you aren’t working with all of the information when you try to mentally model or project what it might be like on the field.  Me, I have a slice of hope that he could maybe be NFL average but getting him to be a plus type of QB is a huge job. It depends on designing the playbook with certain values at the foundation that have to be adhered to first . You have to integrate the other pieces around this one guy’s skill set because he is a real outlier. And he has to learn the under center skill set. Maybe put that Only Positive thread back up people can go there if they don’t want to deal with rightly frustrated fans.
