* Black Bolded Indicates Starter
* This depth chart is relying on a few things:
1) McCullers is able to come in & give us 20-25 snaps a game as the startng NT.
2) Corey Miller gets his grades in order & is back w/ the team in the summer.
3) Herman Lathers can get his ankle back to being 90-95% healthy.
4) We stay healthy through the summer & fall camps.
* I also think that Jordan Williams could give us some snaps as a DE or Jack LB, he played the Jack position in HS.
* I think Maggitt is better suited for the Strong LB spot, especially if Lathers is healthy & can be a starter Inside.
* Hubbs has mentioned numerous times that Byron Moore has been getting the first team reps at Saftey along w/ Randolph, they said he has started to come on as of late.
* Hubbs has alos mentioned the same for Raqiues Crump, he had been gettting some first team reps at ILB for a few practices.
* I think Danny O'Brien can get well over 300lbs by August & could give us some snaps at NT or DE.
