Here is what (as far as my best guesstimation) the 2025 depth chart could look like. This is before portal additions so this is due to change.
Offense
X- If I had to say someone now, I'd say CJ Wiley or Elyiss Williams. Probably a portal player (hopefully the Texas A&M big wideout). I typically would never project a freshman to start but our wide receiver room is that dire.
Z- Zach Branch. Solid starter. Should be a big upgrade.
Slot- Dillonn Bell by default. This will hopefully also be someone in the portal.
TE- Delp/Luckie
Overall, there is cause for excitement here. Branch can be electric. This is by far our best recruiting class in YEARS. Coley is really having a big impact on the program and it's going to show up big time. Maybe not as much next year, but our receivers should be a strength of a the team soon. Our tight end group really took a step back. Delp is a former top recruit; I did not see him having such a lackluster year. Barbour is going to have an opportunity to come in and play quickly. If you watched the state championship game I thought he was the best player on the field.
LT- Freeling
LG- Fairchild
C-Wilson
RG- Morris
RT- Earnest Greene
As a whole, our interior should be the strength of the line. The biggest questions are on the edges. Freeling had been playing well until the game against Notre Dame. I am not an Ernest Greene fan and I'd be saying all year that after wideout, he was our biggest weakness. Hopeful for a portal addition here but I'm not going to hold my breath.
RB-Etienne, Frazier
QB- Stockton
I'm happy with this group. Etienne and Frazier can be our best running attack since Swift. Both are very good and could be near elite if giving better line play. For the one game fishbowl, I thought Stockton looked like someone we can win with. He has a CANNON, isn't afraid to take shots down the field. He does need to clean up his mechanics instead of dropping the ball down before throwing; that led to two fumbles in the SEC championship game and against ND.
DE-Xavier McLeod.
NT-Jordan Hall
DT- Cristen Miller
I feel good about this group. It goes to a really good group if TID comes back. Long gone are the days where we had 5 first round picks rotating on the defensive line, I don't think that will ever exist again. All had a good amount of playing time last year and played well.
Jack-Damon Wilson.
SLB- Chris Cole/ Justin Williams
MLB- CJ Allen
WLB- Raylen Wilson
Damon *should* be and could be our next elite edge rusher. He played well down the stretch. Was he good because of Mykel and Jalon or was he good on his own? That will still be seen. I think CJ and Raylen are just above average; they haven't made any elite plays and I don't know if they're capable. They're a lot more Keith Brooking than real difference makers. Chris Cole played more early and then lost playing time later which I thought was odd. They really like him in coverage.
This group will have a little drop off just because of losing 2 high 1st round picks.
Corner- Ellis Robinson, Daniel Harris. It sounds like Everette is turning pro.
Star- Aguero
FS- Bolden
SS- Peal?
If Everette turns pro that's a big loss. I know the vent is divided on him. Dude does get called for a PI a lot but he also makes a lot of big plays. Ellis is unproven. Daniel Harris played above average but I don't know if either of them can be "the guy." Bolden is a really good player. He is our next Starks. Aguero seems to be just a guy, solid but unspectacular. Safety across from Bolden is our biggest question mark on defense. Not having an elite recruit anywhere in the secondary this last season really is going to hurt.
