• Projecting Bama’s 2023 depth chart after A-DAY Game •


• 2023 Alabama Sports 2023 •

 Tuscaloosa, AL


QUARTERBACKS:

Tyler Buchner, Jalen Milroe, Ty Simpson, Dylan Lonergan, Eli Holstein:

Analysis: Milroe arrived at Alabama in January 2021 and Simpson in December 2021, so respectively they have spent 28 and 17 months in the program. After hundreds of hours of practice and meeting time getting an up-close look at both quarterbacks, Saban decided to add Buchner through the transfer portal last week.

RUNNING BACKS:

Jase McClellan, Roydell Williams, Justice Haynes, Jam Miller, Richard Young:

McClellan and Williams have waited their turn behind Najee Harris, Brian Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs, but one of the storylines during fall camp will be how quickly Haynes can ascend the depth chart.

WIDE RECEIVERS:

Ja’Corey Brooks, Jermaine Burton, Malik Benson, Isaiah Bond, Kendrick Law, Kobe Prentice, Shazz Preston, Emmanuel Henderson, Thaiu Jones-Bell, Jalen Hale, Jaren Hamilton, Cole Adams:

Analysis: Rees told ESPN before the spring game he felt good about the depth at wide receiver; the question is more about who rises to the top. Brooks and Burton are the incumbents but Benson, a junior college transfer, could get on the field immediately as a deep threat.

TIGHT ENDS:

CJ Dippre, Robbie Ouzts, Danny Lewis, Amari Niblack, Miles Kitselman, Ty Lockwood:

Analysis: Dippre filled a need for Alabama as a transfer from Maryland, after the loss of Cameron Latu (third round, San Francisco 49ers) to the NFL draft. With Ouzts limited by injury this spring, Lewis made strides and was on the field as the first-team tight end to begin the spring game.
