It names 6 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 3 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one. > Number one, the Houston Texans are gonna ride David Montgomery. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Daniel Jones to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Daniel Jones, Indianapolis Colts - Verdict: not settled yet - **Tyler Shough to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Tyler Shough, New Orleans Saints - Verdict: not settled yet - **Parker Washington to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Parker Washington, Jacksonville Jaguars - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Daniel Jones — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/daniel-jones - Indianapolis Colts — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/colts - Tyler Shough — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/tyler-shough - New Orleans Saints — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/saints - Parker Washington — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/parker-washington - Jacksonville Jaguars — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/jaguars ## What others said about the same people - Nathan Jahnke on Ameer Abdullah: An unsigned PFF preseason recap makes numerous depth-chart, roster and usage projections across the league, based on Week 3 preseason playing time — including Roman Wilson winning Pittsburgh's third receiver job, Luke McCaffrey's roster spot being in danger, Charlie Kolar as the Chargers' top tight end, and Kendre Miller as the Saints' RB2. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/47566b48-8024-4960-b25c-11c03fe43543 (scored 100) - Noah Compton on Caden Curry: After the Colts' preseason finale loss to Detroit, Compton projected several roster and depth-chart outcomes: Daniel Jones as the starting quarterback, rookie A.J.
