Depth is a concern in some areas. The starters are, well, champions.
DL: this is now an ongoing concern of mine. I was counting on BB3 making a move this season, but he’s off to a bad start with the suspension.
ILB: yikes! Hope Wagner and EJ stay healthy. Who comes off the field when we run the nickel?
WR: without seeing Jefferson on the roster, it looks kinda thin after our starters. Maybe McCutcheon has a shot should VJ start inactive. I’m just not seeing a place for Harris right now. I would be more excited about him if we were still hoping for 8-8 seasons, but we’ve got a championship roster to maintain.
Gotta cross my fingers and hope Atwell makes the leap this year. Skow has a place on STs at the very least.
CBs: now this looks interesting. Who rotates in when we run a nickel? A dime? Lotta young talent back there. Could be our deepest unit after…
OL: I was finally NOT overly concerned last year (Center was the only spot that had me thinking). Now that we saw a solid season from Allen, I’m really thinking this OL is gonna be a legit 7-8 deep every Sunday—with still more talent waiting in the wings.
RBs: just a training room mess. All kinds of talent, though. As long as the Rams have 2 healthy backs each week out of Akers, Henderson, and KW, the offense should be just fine; otherwise, Funk and company (sounds like a band!) are gonna have to step up.
