Thoughts on the Boise State "Depth Chart"

This is the depth chart that Boise State released to the media for Mountain West.  I can already see that it isn't up to date, but beyond that:

Henry and Odhiambo starting are signs that these two who had fans so excited on LOI Day three years ago are living up to potential.  It looks like an amazing line to me.  We'll see, but on paper, one of the best ever.  The holes opposing fans point to on defense will be especially fun to watch.  Again, from the ones listed here, the defense looks every bit as good as last year.  Depth on the D-line is a concern with only six listed in the two-deep.

I do hope that Patti gets some playing time, because the QB battle in 2014 will be one to watch and it's important that whoever gets it is familiar and comfortable in the Bronco offense.

Miller, Boldewijn and Moore is a great starting three for the receivers.  And Ajayi is poised for a lot of yards, God willing that he stay healthy, because that O-line is going to open some holes.

Overall, this Bronco team will be tough to stop this fall.
