that is disappointing--willing to bet he is not starting week 1

Surprised I had to scroll this far to find this. This one was kinda unexpected but I figure none of this is set, and even if he starts we will rotate a ton at safety regardless

The depth chart is largely unsettled on the defensive side, for good reason. I see it shuffling quite a bit before it's over. I think it just reflects seniority for the moment. Hell Nick Scott and A. Robinson may not even make it through final cuts, let alone be starters. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

Not really any surprises and I doubt it'll change all that much but also worth noting that "official" depth charts this early are never put out by the coach or accurately represent the real pecking order other than a guess from whatever staffer they have put it out there. Occasionally used deliberately to motivate a player or to play games with the league too, however. Point being, I wouldn't read anything into it even if it mostly lines up with what we expect anyways.

Austin Corbett starting center over Cade Mays currently.

Links up with what Dunc was saying in his recent video. Corbett was looking pretty good with keeping up with his assignments.

No surprises Turk will play more snaps than Robinson doesn't matter what hes listed at. We need to find a better safety somewhere

It was worse last season, on paper. It takes time.

The closer the season the get the more i realize this team is still far away from competing . I had hope, but man we still have so many holes and too many average starters . But i do think we will be better than last year but that’s not saying much. 

We do know that we have an above average O-line and running backs. That's good. We know that the interior D-line is above average. We know that Jaycee Horn is above average (when on the field). Mike Jackson played slightly above average last year---well enough.

The problem (and maybe the solution) is that we are a young team, and frankly we don't know what we have in the rookies or some of the second-year players, or our QB to be perfectly honest, but there's some hope. We'll know soon.

PUP after back surgery in May. He's supposed to be ready by week 1 I think.

Not sure that is true. Our starters will compete. Depth is going to be an ongoing issue but injuries killed us last year and that is hard to predict. As long as we stay healthy I expect us to be competitive this year.

I would say nothing to see yet but Robinson over Wharton would be a really bad sign by Game 1. 

 

I'm getting FA bust vibes from Wharton, but it's early times still

Why? Robinson was our best DL last season and is a run stopper. Also there is a heavy rotation so Wharton may still get more snaps but 1st down or for sure run plays I want Robinson in with Turk coming in pass downs and to keep both fresh.
