The
nation's
sixth rated
pass defense
has made
great strides.
J.T. Floyd
and Jordan
Kovacs need
replaced
but kudos
has to handed
out to this
coaching
staff for
developing
some quality
depth. |

Offensive
Line |
Should
tackle Taylor
Lewan decide
to scoot
of to the
NFL the
entire offensive
line for
the most
part will
need completely
rebuilt.
This does
not bode
well for
a running
game that
is far less
than dominant.

DEPTH CHARTS were
only designed as a simplistic
gauge for listing players
that departed and players
that received the most
playing experience (consistent
starters). NationalChamps.net
recognizes the importance
of missing personnel data
not listed such as redshirts,
transfers, injuries, incoming
recruits, back ups and
alternates. Their coverage
will begin with our full
2013 Preseason Preview
due out this coming spring.

Head
coach Brady Hoke seemingly
has Michigan moving
in the right direction.
However, next season
the Wolverines are losing
a great deal of components
from the depth chart.
This is a better passing
team with Devin Gardner
behind center as evident
when he stepped in for
Denard Robinson the
latter part of 2012.
Gardner has shown some
flashes of being good,
but he will need to
be much better than
good to keep his team
in the Top 25. The Hoke
recruiting abilities
will now start to be
graded.
