Depth serves teams well over course of NFL grind

Yeah I think a large part of TC's success last season was the fact that he knew Saunders' offense like the palm of his hand. He's going to have to learn Zorn's offense just like everybody else this season, so if he has to step in he's basically gonna have to prove himself all over again IMO.

Still though, I like our depth, except at center (I'd rather not see our whole line have to shift around if Jansen has to fill in at center), linebacker (other than Campbell and Blades I have no idea who our other backups are, Campbell is good for the left side but I still don't know if Blades would be expected to back up Rocky and Fletcher, or if he's going to shift to WLB and stay there). Cornerback we should be good at once Rogers gets back, until then we have ok depth. Safety depth is fine, along with running back, wide receiver, tight end, and guard/tackle depth. I think we should pick up another defensive end but once that happens we'll be fine at DE depth, and DT depth is fine imo.

I still think the skins have OL DL LB and CB lack of depth. considering that we have an old OL that cant stay healthy. Carlos Rogers isnt 100% and SS cant stay healthy for a whole season. Our LBs there is a huge ? with McIntosh and Washington cant stay healthy. I dont think we have much depth at DL either, if either of our ends go down we are in serious trouble.

We have more O-line depth than almost any team in the entire league. LB depth is very sketchy, but if Erasmus and Carlos come back healthy in the first half of the season then we have excellent DL and CB depth as well.

Depth at LB is probably the biggest concern, though I believe Taylor and Wilson are unofficially considered LB depth.
Yeah that and CB is a huge concern. I hope the o-line stays healthy becuase our starters are much better than our back-ups at that position in my opinoin. I guess playing all three of our road division games early is a benefit because we should be healthy that early in the year. They'll be healthy too tho.

I'd say our lack of depth at a few spots is just relative lack of depth. As others have said several positions where our depth is second to none. CB (w/ Rigers' recovered) WR, QB, TE, OT, OG. We do have position specific shortages like LB (inside and out) and center for sure but I expect we'll sure up C a little if none of our current OLinement show aptitude for sliding in. As for LB it is our gamble this year. It's not like we haven't tried. It seems we've been drafting LBs every year until this year. None them have stuck much other than Blades and there are questions about him.

WoW! Pat Kirwin, from NFL.com says that the B&G have as much back-up depth at #2 QB (T.Collins), #2 RB (L.Betts), #3 OT (T.Wade), #3 WR (D.Thomas), #2 OG/C (J.Fabini), #2 TE (F.Wake-up Davis), #3 DT (K.Gholston), Nickle CB (F.Smoot), and #3 S (S.Schweigart), as only four other NFL teams, the vykes, bux, squeelers, and e-girls.

This is huge! Actual pre-season hype for our beloved B&G from an actual talking head! It only takes one talking head to start the bandwagon! I'm on! Are you with me? :goodjob:

yeah we did a good job building a team without spending boat loads of cash in free agency.
