How many teams feel really good about their 8th or 9th lineman on the depth chart? I'm not saying I wouldn't love to have more depth, but in general once you get that far down the depth chart for O-lineman your counting on some young player to develop. I haven't looked at who we have in those spots to closely, but it doesn't look like there is anyone there that I have high hopes for. Although I don't think anyone had huge aspirations for Deljuan Robinson, Tim Bullman, Zac Diles, or even Briesel initially either. Each one of those guys will likely either start or play a big role as part of the rotation other than maybe Diles...and many people thought he was playing the best of all our LB's before he got hurt.
