Every depth chart calls take
2151–2175 of 4,787
Adonai Mitchell to be 2nd on the depth chart
WR2: Adonai Mitchell
Isaiah Williams to be 4th on the depth chart
WR4: Isaiah Williams ... help him further cement his hold on the WR4 role.
Garrett Wilson to be 1st on the depth chart
WR1: Garrett Wilson ... Garrett Wilson heads into the 2026 NFL season as the Jets' No. 1 wide receiver yet again.
Omar Cooper to be 3rd on the depth chart
WR3: Omar Cooper Jr. ... they're hoping Cooper can make an impact as the No. 3 option behind Wilson and Mitchell.
Cade Klubnik to be 1st on the depth chart
Team brass is quite high on fourth-round rookie Cade Klubnik out of Clemson, so my guess is that he takes over eventually. Maybe following the team's Week 13 bye when New York is sitting 3-9 or something.
Keenan Allen to be 3rd on the depth chart
Keenan Allen, who intends to sign a one-year deal with the Colts as a third option to starting receivers Alec Pierce and Josh Downs
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
Deshaun Watson is on track to win the starting quarterback job in Cleveland

Terrance Ferguson to be 3rd on the depth chart
a well-rounded pass-catching weapon in a top-heavy pass-catching corps, with a path to being the team's No. 3 passing-game option

Jadarian Price to be 1st on the depth chart
Seattle brought in Jadarian Price to immediately slide into the vacancy that Kenneth Walker III left behind... Price seems set to dominate touches for the Seahawks early in the season.

Cam Skattebo to be 1st on the depth chart
If Skattebo can remain healthy, he will be an unquestioned No. 1 RB for a team that wants to establish a physical presence by running the ball.

DJ Moore to be 1st on the depth chart
Moore becomes the de facto first read for Josh Allen on all passing plays.

David Montgomery to be 1st on the depth chart
With second-year pass-catching specialist Woody Marks and third-year sixth-round pick Jawhar Jordan, it is clearly Montgomery’s backfield.

D'Andre Swift to be 1st on the depth chart
This opens the door for Swift to start the season as a clear RB1.

Tony Pollard to be 1st on the depth chart
As a result, it’s without a doubt Pollard’s job.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 19, 2026 Malik Willis to be 1st on the depth chart
the inexperienced Malik Willis taking over as the starting quarterback
Brenton Strange to be 5th on the depth chart
as the depth chart currently stands, he’s likely the fourth or fifth option in the target hierarchy
Jordyn Tyson to be 2nd on the depth chart
Jordyn Tyson should become the second target in the Saints' offense this season once he's healthy
Jonathon Brooks to be 1st on the depth chart
Brooks could pull an Uncle Rico from last year and steal Hubbard's starting job in 2026. ... If Jonathon Brooks is fully healthy (I think he will be), he could easily be the backfield leader coming out of camp.
Alec Pierce to be 4th on the depth chart
push him into the WR3/4 territory in drafts
Stefon Diggs to be 2nd on the depth chart
their secondary looks awful again, and that will likely keep them in pass-heavy game scripts, which is nothing but good news for the clear number two target in Washington.
Adonai Mitchell to be 1st on the depth chart
while Adonai Mitchell will serve as the X receiver
Christian Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
Christian Watson is finally the clear No. 1 in Green Bay
Jauan Jennings to be 3rd on the depth chart
They brought in Juan Jennings, who's a number you know, that's a stud receiver. He's the number two, number three receiver behind Addison
