They've made it pretty clear they're leaving Lewis at guard and James Hurst is the current #1 at RT. So I definitely would project that until something changes.

Also Smoove is gonna lose it without Boyle on the roster. Also no Chris Moore?

EDIT - Noticed hes' theere at FB, comment retracted

**Jsmoove** · 06-29-2017, 10:55 AM

TE: Nick Boyle/Watson/Gilmore

Oops! I wrote Chris Matthews when I MEANT Chris Moore.

Also, see my note on Nick Boyle. I put him at FB, but I think he's going to play quite a bit, whether at FB or TE. I just don't see them using a true FB this year, Boyle will play somewhat of a Juice type role.

Also, the DL spots are not totally in "starter/backup" order. I think they'll play matchups a lot on the DL other than Williams at NT

Coachspeak. They played Tyus Bowser at ILB in minicamp too, but I don't see that as meaning much. Also think about how much the team swore Webb would never move to safety until... he moved to safety.

Basically this is my Week 1 depth chart based on what we've seen before camp. In my mind, if they play Lewis at LG and Hurst at RT, they're playing a weaker OL than they could with Lewis at RT and Siragusa at LG.

you shall see that Nick Boyle is the man at TE. I see Tali going to that FB role.

I'm not sure how it's coachspeak. When they played their 1's that was the starting OL. Stanley-Lewis-Jensen-Yanda-Hurst

If we're projecting the depth chart I see no reason to project anything other than what the #1's currently are.

Now if this is a "Depth chart IMO" then it's a different exercise.

For example, they've said they're going to use 3 WR sets so I would project 3 starting WRs in BP, Wallace and Maclin.

Lorenzo Taliaferro gets the nod at FB.

TE I see as: Watson/Boyle/Gillmore/Waller

Maxx Williams spends season on IR.

Same. Either Gilmore or Williams will not make the team, or be put on IR again.

Also I expect both Williams AND Pierce to play a lot together on the D-line.

And I don't think both Campanero and Reynolds make the team.

And the aforementioned Lewis-G, Hurst-RT thing.

I Won't lie, the thought of Pierce and Williams in the middle makes me giddy, then you throw in Willie Man Child Henry in the mix this D front is what I am hoping the O front will be, big and nasty.
