Offensive Tackle Depth Chart

[Vfl2407]

Just looked at our depth chart and we don’t list more than two people at each tackle position.
left. Heard/Johnson
right. Campbell/Davis

if any of those get hurt or are out, do we move some guards over to tackle?
what other options do we have?

Those weekly depth charts don’t list everyone on the roster. They’re typically just the 2-deep. Or 3-deep if it’s a position where 3 play significant snaps.

At OT, Tennessee has Lance Heard, Campbell, Johnson, Davis, Jeremias Heard, Duncan, Perry, Warren, Ginther…and Anderson and Grant can also play OT. Even Sham can play OT.

Of those that you list, have any seen much playing time this season.

Dunno. But I say we're better off having them than none of them.

 

[VOLfrombama]

Based on my own internal compilation of fall camp practice reports and summarizes from the talking heads, after the two deep listed above, I think it goes

Jessie Perry
Brian Grant
Bennet Warren
and God help us if it goes any further than that.

Are Ayden Bussell and Masai Redick also tackles ? I thought one was.

Warren played against Chatt and Kent State

I just double checked and caught that, Bussell did also. Reddick hasn't played yet.

I think Saturday answered any questions ab OT depth and potential confidence we have at that position.

I remember one game years ago when the place kicker got hurt in practice, and the backup pulled a muscle while warming up and we had no kicker. The UT police had to go fetch a walk-on from his frat house, escort him to the stadium and he suited up and ended up scoring a field goal and three extra points and getting the game ball. Can't remember how long ago that was, but thought it was funny.

It did and it ain’t good.

Umarov played tackle in the iowa game and did a pretty good job. Backing up guards lately but has the size to play the position.

They both came in under 300 lbs, They would have had to bulk up a lot to play tackle. Reddick has been here awhile so he should have bulked up by now. If he was going to play this year he would have by now.

He got injured earlier in the year. Any word on him?

During the Dooley era as I recall.

Some one in another thread said the injury looked bad but nothing official He played in first 3 games and then out for this one.

Tennessee grabs last-second kicker off his frat house couch

It was 6:10 p.m. when University of Tennessee student Derrick Brodus got the call. He was lying on the couch in his frat house, waiting for the Tennessee-Middle Tennessee game to start at 7 p.m. when the football office rang … <a...

Its mind bottling how stubborn and/or infatuated with Dayne Davis this staff is.

have several younger players but they are a long way from being effective and able to protect Nico.

going to be a while. Maybe November..
