QB - Wallace, Brunetti, ?
RB - Scott, Mathers, Walton, Dodson
WR1 - Moncreif, Treadwell, Adebedejo
WR2 - Sanders, Logan
Slot - Moore, Mireles, Neat
TE - Moore, ?
LT - McCray, Tunsil
LG - Morris, Duke
C - Swindol, ?
RG - Bell, Junen
RT - Burton, Gholson

DE - Whigam, Nkemdichie, Thompson
DE - Johnson, Ward, ?
DT - Bennett, Hooks, ?
NT - Gross, Hamilton, Martin
MIKE - Marry, Shack, Strong
STING - Denzel, Lewis, Bryant
HUSKY - Hilton, Connor
BCB - Sawyer, Collins, ?
FCB - Golson, Standifer, ?
ROVER - Elston, Brown
FS - Prewitt, Burdette

This is off the top of my head with assistance of the post spring Depth Chart. What battles do you see taking place and who do you see moves up and down and fills some of the question marks?

Do you see Logan moving back to the outside or staying at slot? I think the need is greater outside with Moore and Mireles. Someone needs to be a good option besides Treadwell.

Looks good to me. Thompson will back up CJ though and Ward will be in the rotation with Whigam and RN. Also, Bryant backs up Denzel while Lewis is the passing MLB so he should back up Mike

The main battle will be at...

RG between Bell, Junen, and Tunsil.

Huskie between Hilton, Connor, and maybe Chief

Safety between Prewitt, Elston, and Chief.

An interesting battle in the second string will be at one corner spot. Collins will lock up one backup role and it will between Coleman, Standifer, Kailo, Burdette (maybe) Hill, and Kamara. With Davis out half the season, this spot has opened up

I've read that Swindall's backup at center will be Austin Douglas. But Chase Hughes was out with an injury during the spring, so I don't know whether Douglas would legitimately beat Hughes. I've also seen Ben Still listed in the depth chart at center.

Unless Tunsil really shows out, I think Morris would move to tackle if McCray or Burton are injured, and either Tunsil or Golson would move inside. That's how Coach Luke handled things when he bumped Burton down for just a little while during last fall's practice. But that's just my poorly informed guess.

I've read reports that Junen has a difficult time pulling, because he just isn't quick enough. Tunsil or Golson could push for playing time at RG if they are quicker. Coach Luke is all about playing the best five linemen, regardless of a depth chart.

I doubt any TE gets many targets this year. If anything, a TE will probably be used as an extra tackle.

As far as secondary goes, Chief Brown is a name that keeps popping up this offseason.

I thinks he's definitely the 1st backup at either spot, could easily push a guy like Elston in fall practice.

Woody Hamilton is also making moves on the DL - he's going to get a ton of PT.

Looking over the depth chart, the best positions are likely:

WR
LB
DE - I'm already penciling in RN as a contributor

Positions that look solid at starting spots but not very deep at this current juncture:

Any OL
S
QB
DT
RB

Position where we have legit depth concerns:

CB

Positions that are completely fricked:

TE
