Every depth chart calls take
2101–2125 of 4,787
- PendingGordon McGuinnessDepth Chart Calls2026 season
Roy Lopez to be 1st on the depth chart
the only projected new starter, Roy Lopez, earned a PFF grade below 70.0 in 2025
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 20, 2026 Jalen Redmond to be 1st on the depth chart
The interior of Minnesota's defensive line is even greener, with rookies Caleb Banks and Domonique Orange poised for significant roles next to Jalen Redmond.
Jonathon Brooks to be 1st on the depth chart
A healthy Jonathon Brooks should lead the Carolina Panthers backfield ... he has a clear path to becoming Carolina's lead back.
Drew Allar to be 1st on the depth chart
Allar has a chance to be the Steelers' starting quarterback as early as next season
Travis Etienne to be 1st on the depth chart
While Etienne steps into the undisputed lead role, Kamara was still expected to play a role in the Saints' offense.

Jihaad CampbellPhiladelphia Eagles
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 20, 2026 Trevon Diggs to be 2nd on the depth chart
it's hard to imagine this being anything more than a simple depth signing. He likely will play on special teams as much, if not more, as he'll play on defense.
Garret Wallow to be 4th on the depth chart
The issue is that if these two are third and fourth behind Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw, one of their former draft picks will be the odd man out.
- PendingEd KraczDepth Chart Calls2026 season
Zack Baun to be 1st on the depth chart
Zack Baun is one starting linebacker.

Jeremiah Trotter Jr. to be 3rd on the depth chart
He's very good and could very well start for a few other teams in the league. Just not this one.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.Philadelphia Eagles
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 20, 2026 Luke Gifford to be 1st on the depth chart
Gifford was listed as the starter at SAM and was benched with the rest of the starters in the preseason opener. He started in the role last year and plays special teams. His job appears to be set.
Deone Walker to be 1st on the depth chart
The Bills have him penciled in as the first-team nose tackle, and he doesn't appear interested in giving up his role.
Carnell Tate to be 1st on the depth chart
just as Tate isn't yet the WR1 he's expected to be alongside Cam Ward
Keldric Faulk to be 1st on the depth chart
will be impossible to keep off the field sooner rather than later
Kyle McCord to be 3rd on the depth chart
Between the 53-man roster and the practice squad, the Green Bay Packers will take three quarterbacks into the regular season. Kyle McCord will be that third quarterback
Dallas Turner to be 1st on the depth chart
All eyes are fixated on the 23-year-old as he steps in to replace Jonathan Greenard, whom the team traded during the draft. If today was any indication, he's ready for the spotlight.
- PendingZach PressnellDepth Chart Calls2026 season
Tanner Hudson to be 5th on the depth chart
If All and Endries stay healthy and continue to impress, then Hudson may get bumped to the fifth tight end spot.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 19, 2026 Bo Nix to be 1st on the depth chart
the plan is to give the QB1 at least two series
Calvin Throckmorton to be 1st on the depth chart
He continues to run as the first-team center with Wattenberg and Forsyth unavailable during team periods.
Brandon Cisse to be 1st on the depth chart
As long as he keeps trending the right way, Brandon Cisse seems destined to be one of Green Bay's starting cornerbacks for the Week 1 showdown at Justin Jefferson and the Vikings.
Daniel Faalele to be 1st on the depth chart
There's a decent chance Faalele ends up as Jacksonville's Week 1 starting right guard, and all the Jaguars had to give up for him was a sixth-round pick.
Francis Mauigoa to be 1st on the depth chart
with veteran Jon Runyan and 2026 10th overall pick Francis Mauigoa entrenched at the team's starting guard spots
