Every depth chart calls take
4651–4675 of 5,113
Gardner Minshew to be 1st on the depth chart
he more than likely he's not gonna be able to start at the start of the season. Maybe Garterer Mitshew is going to be the starter for the Colts.
Malik Willis to be 1st on the depth chart
the Dolphins. It seems like Malik Willis is going to be the starting quarterback for them next year
- PendingJason MartinDepth Chart Calls2026 season
Drew Allar to be 2nd on the depth chart
Drew, aller to, me looks like a career backup in THE nfl is going to come in and turn the ball over some ... i'll go on record and SAY i think it's something that's going to. Continue
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Mar 1, 2026 Russell Wilson to be 1st on the depth chart
Also, don't forget Russell Wilson's are free agents, so somebody's good. Russell Wilson's gonna end up with a starting job next year
Fernando Mendoza to be 1st on the depth chart
And I mean, if they take him, they're going to put him out there right away.
Fernando Mendoza to be 1st on the depth chart
So you take a guy at one overall, that's the most you could possibly invest in someone. So you're gonna have to throw them out there, whether whether the team is ready or not... He's gonna he's gonna be pegged as the savior of this of this Veiggess franchise
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
And I believe that Deshaun Washington is going to be the opening day starter for the Cleveland Browns when it's all said and done.
Rueben Bain to be a starter
He he measured it under thirty one inch arms. That's not good if you're trying to play edge. I think he's gonna need to move inside.
Mansoor Delane to be 1st on the depth chart
But to me, he brings a high floor as a corner. He's very polished and could be a day one starter in the NFL.
J.J. McCarthy to be 1st on the depth chart
But it's gonna be JJ McCarthy's gig... JJ McCarthy starting week one onward.
Xavier Legette to be a starter
placeholder
Christian Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
Do you think Christian Watson is a a true number one receiver in the NFL? ... I think he's everything that you want in a in a wide number one wide receiver.
Shedeur Sanders to be 1st on the depth chart
COLORADO i would give him the starting job BECAUSE i think you want a quarterback in a year
Taylor Decker to be 1st on the depth chart
Taylor Decker, back... He's, you know, going into his eleventh season.
Daniel Jones to be 1st on the depth chart
Anthony Richardson knows he has no path to be the starter in Indianapolis again... Everything is tracking toward Daniel Jones being ready for week one.
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
I see this playing out as Deshaun and Shador are battling it out for QB one.
Daniel Jones to be 1st on the depth chart
Ultimately, I believe that Daniel Jones will be the quarterback of the Colts.
Anthony Richardson to be 2nd on the depth chart
He's going somewhere to be a backup next year to just kinda see what you got. Yeah... But I don't have any evidence from his play that he's going to be able to do that to start '26.
Malik Willis to be 1st on the depth chart
I say to Malik Willis, come on in here you go, job's yours... And I don't think JJ McCarthy is the answer, at least not yet.
Ladd McConkey to be 1st on the depth chart
I think Lad's a legitimate number one receiver.
Deebo Samuel Sr. to be 2nd on the depth chart
Again, we're not saying that he's wide receiver one, and I don't think at this point, in the off season, you're gonna have to pay him like he's a wide receiver one.
Jonas Sanker to be 1st on the depth chart
the thing about Jonas Sanker is that he could become an even bigger part of Brandon Staley's defense should Allante Taylor depart and the Saints tab him to be the new star player, star position... He could have an even bigger role going into 2026.
Jalen Travis to be 1st on the depth chart
Steiken made it sound like they have an in house replacement ... So it sounds like they're going to let Braden Smith hit the market if you're looking for a right tackle.
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
Deshaun Watson is starting ... Going to be the starting quarterback Yeah. For the Browns.
Omar Cooper to be 3rd on the depth chart
he's more of a robbin than a batman... he's he's a two, a three someone just have a lot of success, an eleven personnel
