Every depth chart calls take
1576–1600 of 4,920
Jordyn Tyson to be 1st on the depth chart
Round 1: Jordyn Tyson , wide receiver, projected to start, but hampered by a hamstring that could keep him grounded for another month
Malik Willis to be 1st on the depth chart
In terms of career NFL starts, the Miami Dolphins' Malik Willis will likely be the least experienced Week 1 starting quarterback in the league. ... And yet Willis is the quarterback the Dolphins will build around this season
Tutu Atwell to be 3rd on the depth chart
Atwell had larger roles in 2023 and 2024 (39 and 42 catches, respectively) but will be, at best, a distant third option behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams in the wide receiver pecking order. ... There is, of course, a chance that Atwell isn't even the third wide receiver.
Garrett Bradbury to be 1st on the depth chart
while trade acquisition Garrett Bradbury should hold down center
Javon Solomon to be 5th on the depth chart
it's sounding like Solomon is a lock for the fifth outside linebacker spot
Dallas Turner to be 1st on the depth chart
Third-year OLB Dallas Turner would be the next man up to replace the departing Greenard. While the 23-year-old has shown flashes, this will be his first real chance to put it all together through a full season
Antonio Williams to be 3rd on the depth chart
Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs are going nowhere, and Antonio Williams has done just about everything possible to strengthen his case throughout camp. ... After those three, things become much harder.
