Some quick thoughts:
- Multiple freshmen starting. Six true and redshirt. Two dozen true and redshirt freshmen on the depth chart overall. Real young.
- This depth chart is written in clay, not stone. It will look different by midseason.
- Ridgeway's back issues basically kept him from practicing. He'll play and his snaps will be dictated by health and conditioning.
- We knew about starting two true freshmen on the OL, but it's shocking to see it in black and white. Best five start - so don't expect orderly replacements if a starter goes down.
- Antwuan Davis has clearly stepped up. He's listed as #2 CB, but the OR between Duke Thomas and John Bonney is interesting. It appears that Davis is the 3rd corner overall and will start in our base nickel D unless we go with a three safety package. Bryson Echols has receded, which we predicted in the preview. PJ Locke beat out Adrian Colbert (who had been having a good camp) for #2 FS. That's impressive.
- Davante Davis is backing up Duke Thomas. Kris Boyd also in the mix. The freshman DB class is as good as advertised.
- Daje Johnson backing up Marcus Johnson is interesting. I don't read too much into it - he and Johnson are cross-trained at other positions and can be on the field at the same time. It's also a message to Daje not to coast.
- Shiro Davis better watch his back. Bryce Cottrell had a good camp and he's arguably the most gifted pass rusher on the team. The growth of Cottrell and Roberson allowed the Bluiett TE move.
- Jinkens gets his shot again. He has started for three different defensive coordinators in his career at Texas. And been benched by all of them. Jean-Mary and Strong are talking break-out. Let's see it.
- We're going to spend a lot of time in nickel, which takes WLB Freeman off of the field.
- Dylan Haines was predicted to be eclipsed at safety by a lot of people. Not us. He's got physical limitations but he has better range and anticipation than his testing suggests.
- Lorenzo Joe didn't make the depth chart. Interesante.
- This is a really young football team.
