# Jordan Dajani: In a survey of every team's first unofficial depth chart, the piece predicts Jeremiyah Love will eventually take over as Arizona's starting running back, tabs Braxton Jones as the favorite to win Chicago's left tackle job, names Caleb Downs a leading Defensive Rookie of the Year candidate, calls Seattle rookie Jadarian Price a favorite for Offensive Rookie of the Year, and floats Bryce Lance as a sleeper in New Orleans. **Claimed:** Aug 14, 2026 **Pundit:** Jordan Dajani — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/jordan-dajani **Outlet:** CBS Sports — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/cbs-sports **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/one-takeaway-from-each-nfl-teams-first-depth-chart/ 4 checkable claims — 2 award picks and 2 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 8 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 2 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one. > It's expected that Love will overtake Allgeier on the depth chart at some point, but the former Falcon will still have a role in this offense. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Jadarian Price to win Offensive Rookie of the Year** - Kind: Award Picks · About: Jadarian Price, Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jeremiyah Love to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Jeremiyah Love, Arizona Cardinals - Verdict: not settled yet - **Braxton Jones to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Braxton Jones, Chicago Bears - Verdict: not settled yet - **Caleb Downs to win Defensive Rookie of the Year** - Kind: Award Picks · About: Caleb Downs, Dallas Cowboys - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Jadarian Price — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/jadarian-price - Seattle Seahawks — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/seahawks - Jeremiyah Love — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/jeremiyah-love - Arizona Cardinals — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/cardinals - Braxton Jones — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/braxton-jones - Chicago Bears — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/bears - Caleb Downs — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/caleb-downs - Dallas Cowboys — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/cowboys ## What others said about the same people - John Middlekauff on Caleb Williams: Middlekauff expects either Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson to win this year's MVP, calling them the two best players in the league.
