Ben Sinnott to be 2nd on the depth chart
his third season is a logical breakout window if he becomes the number two move tie them be behind Chikagokounmpo
Antonio Williams to be 3rd on the depth chart
He has a real wide receiver two, wide receiver three opening opportunity next to Terry McLaren... Antonio Williams is is projected to be a starter in his rookie season
Sonny Styles to be 1st on the depth chart
But I think starting immediately, being just the fourteenth linebacker in NFL history to play 90% or more of his team stems as a rookie.
Trey Amos to be 1st on the depth chart
if he stays healthy, holds that starting outside cornerback job, which I believe he will

Brandon Aiyuk to be 1st on the depth chart
there's reason to believe that if he was taking all of these things seriously... that he could potentially return to form of consequence and be you know, if not a wide receiver one by elite definition, a low end wide receiver one
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Jul 3, 2026 Talanoa Hufanga to be 1st on the depth chart
Well, with Tylenol, Hufanga, and Brandon Jones set as starters ahead of him, Devin keep being the third safety for Denver's defense.
Devon Key to be 3rd on the depth chart
Devin keep being the third safety for Denver's defense
Miles Scott to be 4th on the depth chart
Is Miles Scott the third safety? No. I think he has a chance to be that fourth safety for you, though.
Devon Key to be 3rd on the depth chart
we feel comfortable keeping Devon Key in that third safety spot because Myles Scott impressed us so much on special teams
Brandon Jones to be 1st on the depth chart
with Tylenol, Hufanga, and Brandon Jones set as starters ahead of him

just a a trusty type of third running back with Kaimani Vidal who showed you that he can get the job done when he's thrust into action

Omarion Hampton to be 1st on the depth chart
really liking who the Chargers running backs have in Amari and Hampton and the backups now being Kamani Vidal and Keaton Mitchell

Ladd McConkie feels like he comfortably fit into Mike McDaniel's offense as the team's top receiver on in breaking routes generating yak
Ladd McConkeyLos Angeles Chargers
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Jul 3, 2026 Cole Strange to be 1st on the depth chart
Cole Strange's gonna be at guard. Tyler Beata's at center
Tyler Biadasz to be 1st on the depth chart

Jake Slaughter to be 1st on the depth chart
they drafted a guy who Jake Slaughter, who was a center, but probably won't be playing center, will be playing guard

Jonas Sanker out of Virginia, who is now stepping into Allante Taylor's role as the star slot defender, in this defense
Julian Blackmon to be 1st on the depth chart
Justin Reed as well as, Julian Blackman are your two starting kind of deep safeties
Ryan Wright to be 1st on the depth chart
Your punter is Ryan Wright... He's gonna be there.
Charlie Smyth to be 1st on the depth chart
makes the most sense to keep Charlie Smith there... as the kicker. We'll see if he rides to that competition. Pretty confident he will going into training camp.
Kool-Aid McKinstry to be 1st on the depth chart
the leadership is also coming from setting the example on the football field as the top corner in the room, and that's being done by Kool Aid McKinstry... So Kool Aid and Quincy are your your starters.
Justin Reid to be 1st on the depth chart
Justin Reed as well as, Julian Blackman are your two starting kind of deep safeties
Quincy Riley to be 1st on the depth chart
my projection for the quarterback room is, Quilead McKentry, Quincy Riley, those year two starters on the outside
