Couple of thoughts on our depth chart:

1. JRP is going to see some serious time at receiver, which makes me happy. He's fast, he's smart, and he's electric.
2. Our offensive line is fricking stacked. I don't think we understand how important it was for us to get Orlando Umana in the transfer portal - having Ben Brown at guard (his true position) instead of center is huge.
3. Snoop Conner at 4th string is interesting, but his Ole Miss career is over after this year - might as well let Parrish get some more reps. Snoop will still have a short yardage package.
4. The defensive line is definitely deeper than it was last year - having Iton & Gordon at DT is great. Curious to see if Tywone Malone is quick enough to play DE. If he can move fast and maintain his 300lb weight, he's going to be a monster.
5. I like the idea of playing a 4-2-5 rather than a 4-3. Linebacker is going to be a little thin, and Otis Reese has the perfect build/skill set to play nickelback.
6. Our secondary might actually be really good this year. Reese and Finley are studs, Deane Leonard showed out in the bowl game, Jaylon Jones is a known commodity, and our depth guys are experienced.

LFG. See y'all in Atlanta.

Very surprised about Snoop, i suspect he will still get some substantial carries tho.

The only interesting thing on the offense is Snoop on 4th team and Wolfe is already 2nd team TE. I wouldn’t be surprised if Wolfe is starting before the season ends. I think outside of Reese,Finley, and Williams the defense will be rotating a lot based on match ups and the situation. Mingo being the punt returner is the most shocking thing on the depth chart.
