This certainly is a surprising depth chart. Lots of things that at least on the surface make no sense.
Lemon is the best player on the offensive unit but he is not listed as a starter. I think that is explained by his missing spring practice. No surprise Kobena is the top backup for Alec. He was given a lot of reps in the spring. The staff is giving him every chance to succeed. Hale and Cornelius are similar players who will battle for playing time their entire careers at SU.
Sales looks like he is pretty far ahead of the other WRs at the Z. Flemming might finally be emerging from the dark shadows of the edge of the depth chart. Really like what he can do, especially in the red zone. That being said, I think West is really the 2nd Z WR, but because he was hurt, he is being listed on the third team. West got a lot more reps than Adrian did in the spring. I am a big Ben Lewis fan. Being put at the Z makes it harder for him to get immediate PT...he is fighting for time against two juniors and a senior instead of a senior, a frosh and 2 sophomores.
Hickey is the apple of DM's eye. Always has been. Marrone has made a number of references to his raw talent...really likes Sean a lot. When Pugh returns, it will be interesting to see if Hickey moves to RT and if he, if he takes over that position from Alexander.
At RT right now, Alexander only has a walk on battling him for playing time, and it looks like he is a lock to start the season at RT. Kind of surprised Phillips or even Knapp isn't also at RT to push Alexander. I suspect Kris Curtis is probably also working at RT and DM is not listing him there as a motivational tool. Would not be surprised to see Curtis give Alexander a strong run for the starting job at RT. For the first time in a long time, I think we have some decent depth at OT. We will know for sure in a month or two.
Was wondering what would happen with Trudo. I think the staff wanted to put him at center and have him ready to go in case Macky got hurt but the lack of depth at OG prevented them from being able to do this. Emerich has a great chance now to be a three year starter at center.
Of course Zack Chibane is a lock at the left guard position. Right now Nick Robinson is well positioned to take over from him next year and be a two year starter. But Omari Palmer was really impressive in the HS all star games and looks like he will be a force to be reckoned with.
At the RG spot, Foy vs Trudo should be one of the best battles for an open position in preseason camp. From what I saw in the spring, they are very closely matched. If neither emerges, maybe they move Nick Robinson over from LG? That would be a bad sign and one I do not think is likely. When push comes to shove, I think Trudo wins this position.
No surprises at RB. Still wish we were going to use Broyld more as a WR than an RB. We have so many RBs and not a lot of WRs that can get good yards after a catch. Wish Gulley worked harder in the weight room. Wasn't he about 181 last season as well? SU Athletics is listing AAM at 244 and we know he is more like 225 right now so it looks like the weights have not been updated from the spring yet. Maybe a little ado about nothing.
Cleveland remains ahead of Davis at FB. He looked good there in the spring. Might hold off Myles. That should be another great battle for PT.
At TE, not a lot of surprises. Wales is going to start at the Y, block a lot and get a few catches. Beaulieu has looked lost here, do not expect him to be a factor. Addazio remains injured. Do not expect him to be a factor. Barrett being exiled here tells me DM did not want to have to deal with an undersized center from CBA again after Macky leaves. This is his best bet for PT...serve as an extra blocker in short yardage situations. Thompson is 2nd team almost by default and has a great chance to get playing time almost immediately.
At the TE position, Stevens is going to get a lot of catches for this team, picking up where Provo left off. I think he runs a little better than Nick and might be a small improvement receiving wise. Nick came a lot way blocking by the time he was a senior, hope Stevens improves in this area. Carl Cutler is a red shirt senior. Does he have a black cloud over his head or what? I go to a lot of open practices, all the home games, lots of away games and I have only seen him take a few snaps. I really hope he is able to stay healthy this season and have a good year. Working that hard for that long for no payoff would be very unfortunate indeed. Parris and Green are both promising (SU Athletics lists Green as a frosh incorrectly). After years of having no depth at TE, things are finally looking up here as well. Good to see.
At QB, not much to say. I think all three backups have a chance to play, the battle for the backup positition could be a sneak preview of the starting QB for 2013 and we should pay attention for that reason (though a couple of incoming frosh who will arrive in January might have something to say about that).
Will post my thoughts about the defense two deeo later.
