Now that its officially football season, if you had to fill out the depth chart today, what would it look like?
I'll take an uneducated stab since no one else has thus far.
QB - Fitz/Thompson
RB - Williams/Hill/Gibson
X - Guidry/Couch
Z - Todd/Austin Williams or Whop
Slot - Mixon/Dear/Thomas
TE - Green/Johnson
LT - Eiland
LG - Calhoun
C - Jenkins
RG - Williams
RT - Reece
Some mix of Champion, Phillips, and Story as the swings
DE - Sweat/Rivers
NT - Simmons/Brown
DT - Hoyette/Thomas
DE - Green/Rivers
OLB - Gay/Washington
MLB - Thompson/Lewis
Hybrid - Cole/Peters
CB - Rayford/Williams
FS - McLaurin/Landrews
SS - Abram/Landrews
CB - Dantzler/Murphy?
Is Guidry even on the team? I have heard he went back home.
Pretty good. Austin Williams is in the slot. Deddrick Thomas is probably right behind him there at this point. Will be interesting to see if Dear and Mixon can move back up. I have my doubts about Mixon getting/staying healthy and not sure how Dear fits in this offense. He'll have to become more of a true receiver more so than just a jet sweep, bubble screen guy.
Flip Williams and Calhoun at guard, and add Dontae Jones to the TE rotation.
On defense I think Spencer and Kobe Jones will rotate with the 2's at DE alongside Rivers. What a group.
Gay probably backs up Thompson and Lewis at MLB and OLB. Maybe he overtakes Leo on the outside.
Landrews and Murphy were backing up Cole in the Star position. Peters is at corner. Not sure about our safety depth behind McLaurin and Abram. I would imagine Cole, Landrews or Murphy would move to FS or SS if something happened to one of the starters back there.
Gonna be very hard to keep Austin Williams off the field very long. Dude has the best catching hands I have seen at MSU in the last 10-15 years. Get it anywhere close to him and it's caught. In fact, I would likely start him ahead of Todd. Todd has some things to prove to me still....he can do it, but he's got some serious competition.
This front 7 is going to be amazing
Who is our punter, FG kicker, LS, and KO man?
