Bravo! Our depth chart looks great through 2028!

The Den
1

QB: Goff- 3 years pro bowler
LT: Sewell- 4 yrs All Pro
C: Cade Mays- 3 yrs plus starter
RG: Rat- 3 years plus starter
RT: Blake Miller- 5 years will be plus plus starter
WR1: Ra- 3 years All Pro
WR2: Jamo- 4 years plus plus starter
WR3: Isaac Teslaa- 3 years plus starter
RB1: Gibby- 5 years w/extension, All Pro

That is 9 of 11 starters on offense that are all 26 or younger and locked up for 3 or more years.

DE1: Hutch- 5 years All Pro
DT1: Mac- 3 years plus starter
DT2: Tyliek- 4 years… ???
DE2: D Moore- 4 years… ???
LB1: Campbell- 5 yrs w/ext… All Pro
CB1: Arnold- 3 years…. ?
FS1: K Joseph- 4 years… All Pro
CB2: DJ Reed- 2 years… plus starter

That’s 8 starters on D, and 7 are here for 3 plus with only Reed being a 2 year, and Reed is the only one over age 26!!!

  • so really we need 5 starters, and we can assume that two of those spots will held by Laporta (week one) and Branch (week 8?) leaving us only 3 spots to really worry about

LG- Mahogany/Scruggs/Bartch/Borom

LB- Barnes/Rolder/Clark/Rodrigo

NB- McCreary, Abney, Rakestraw

So we have proven nfl players in their primes and familiar with our system, along with your mid round picks to compete at each spot..

Even TE has Wright and Conklin, and SS has Maddox and Iziem, and DE has Wonnum

Brad has really managed to build a helluva depth chart while keeping youth and contract length in mind…

I expect we extend Gibby, Jack, and one of Branch or Laporta knowing we will replace the other early next year with a vet and a high draft pick.

It’s a fine roster.

Good enough to win a SB. A lot more than roster development has to go right for that to happen, though. Schemes gotta be very strong. Need injury luck.

But I’m definitely looking forward to seeing what these guys can do in the fall.

Let’s see if our IOL is shit or not

If Goff can step up he’s lethal

If not, 9-8 again maybe a little better with weak schedule

It won’t be any worse than last year, and, along with the injuries and crap scheme on defense, they went 9-8 with a tough schedule.

I understand tempering expectations, but I think you may be overcorrecting here.

12 wins is my o/u and I don’t think that’s a stretch.

Agreed. Buuuuuut………..we really can’t count on Joseph and we really can’t count on Joseph ever playing at an All-pro level again.

IOL & IDL take a step forward vs last year, it will make a MASSIVE difference
