2013 Depth Chart

[Mr_Sweets]

Anyone have any insight /thoughts as to who the starting (& #2's) for Offense & Defense will be for the 2013 opener?

[jpfalcon09]

I think outside of Schilz/Johnson and Gallon, the positions will be open each week. Lots of depth to go through at each position that it would take too long to type that information out.

[Mr_Sweets]

Yea I guess I should have filled in what I thought first:

QB: Schilz/Johnson
HB: Givens/Hopgood/Martin/Coppet/Houston (can anyone provide more insight here)
FB: Pohlman
WR: Gallon/Joplin/Burbrink/Cohen/Redding/Coby
TE: Bayer/Beck
LT: Piazza/Bennett
LG: Huettel/?
C: Chief/Cairo
RG: Flewellyn/?
RT: Dietz/Rolf
DE: Thomas/Walker
DT: Campbell/Ouellet
LOLB: Swan/?
MLB: Lynch/?
ROLB: Martin/?
CB: Truss/Watson (Hunter out due to Injury)
FS: Ward/Foster
SS: BooBoo/Pettus
K: Tate/Farinella
P: Schmiedebusch/

Please feel free to copy and paste the above into your reply post and make changes. Thanks!

QB: Schilz/Johnson
HB: Givens/Greene...if they burn Coppit's redshirt he'll be top 3. Hopgood/Houston for short yardage. Hopgood for wildcat. I think Hopgood might be the best receiver as well.
FB: Beck/Pohlman
WR: Gallon/Joplin/Jackson then Burbrink/Coby/Hosley/Redding/Cohen/Moore
TE: Bayer/Beck
LT: Piazza/Bennett
LG: Huettel/Beggin
C: Chief/Cairo (Heuttel,Cairo & Flewellyn can play either G or C.)
RG: Flewellyn/Delaney
RT: Dietz/Rolf/Steward(correction..Chapmen left)
DE: Thomas/Walker with Montgomery situational and then Goble/Baird/Croley
DT: Campbell/Ouellet with Colvin as first backup and then maybe Minns/Royster
LOLB: Lynch/Brown
MLB: Swan/Senn
ROLB: Martin/Ford, maybe Banks or Barimah?
CB: Truss/Foster (Watson is backup) Hunter/Foster were in a battle before the injury. Breakout year for Foster.
FS: Ward/Pettus good battle here too. Osborne is a decent walkon
SS: BooBoo/Barimah unless he is now Gabe Martin's backup then Sanford.
PK: Tate
KO: Farinella
P: Schmiedebusch/Davidson
KOR: Moore/Gates/Delk
PR: Moore/Burbrink

@Siborg ... Thanks!

Anyone else have anything to add?

[Flipper]

Per Jack Carle on twitter....Greene is the starter at TB

[MarkL]

Whoah ... I thought for sure Givens would be starting. If Greene is starting, we must have some sick depth at TB.

[mscarn]

We need big plays and Greene's forte is speed so that makes sense. The RT (Piazza or the freshman) and 3rd WR jobs will be interesting.

Some notable updates here by John Wagner, mostly on offense.

Looks like we're starting two freshman on the OL. Bennett and Dietz. That will definitely be interesting

2nd year in a row.

Man I hope Schilz is ready to step up this year. The WR tandem of Joplin/Gallon could be scary for opposing secondaries if Matt can get the ball out to 'em.

I also hope Clawson uses the run to set up the deep passing game. Those guys should be running downfield a LOT this year.

[MarkL]

Worth noting is that BooBoo Gates remains the kick returner. I remember late last year he had several outstanding kick returns ... that were called back due to penalty. Clean up those errors and we may have a truly elite kick returner. The guy is an outstanding athlete.
