Here is my best guess.
We'll see how things change in a month.

QB: Ramsey / Penix / Tuttle
(looking good)

RB: Scott / Walker / James / Gest / Winters
(wow)

WR: Westbrook / Marshall
WR: Hale / Ellis(?)
WR: Philyor / Fryfogle
(solid, but unproven depth)

TE: Hendershot / Ivy / Bjorson
(me likey)

LT: Cronk / Rafferty
LG: Crider / Beery
OC: Littlejohn / O'Connor
RG: Stepaniak / Nworah
RT: Jones / Bedford
(should be solid)

DE: Everett / Bryant / Ziemba
NG: Harris / Nofoagatoto'a / Wilson
DT: Johnson / Whitner / King
DE: Stallings / Head / Robbins
(lots of young depth that could show up here)

LB: Jones / McFadden / Williams
LB: Allen / Miller / Bonhomme
(probably the biggest unknown on the roster?)

HU: Ball / Fitzgerald
CB: Layne / Taylor / Mullen
CB: Brown / Williams / Riggins
FS: Jones / Bryant / Jusevitch
SS: Matthews / Burgess / Pierre
(love everything about the backfield!)

K: Justus
P: Whitehead

Probably missing a lot of FR that will be moved around and fill in gaps. On paper, one of the best rosters in a while, imo.

How'd I do?
 
There is a depth chart in media guide.

This years team has the best overall depth that I can remember. There are few glaring holes. I agree with the majority of your position assessments. I feel that LB play will determine the effectiveness of our D. Miller will have more PT than Allen. DL will be a group effort. Someone in WR core needs to step up and be that uncoverable player.

I feel that QB, DL, & LB are the biggest ?'s. LB we can kind of hide our deficiencies a little bit with our secondary with Ball, Jones, Matthews & the like, but interior DL is my biggest worry. Well, the schedule is my biggest, but as far as our roster, we're going to have to rely on a lot of inexperience on the interior DL. At QB, I'm just not confident in Ramsey's ability to make the throws that we need to keep defenses honest, i. e. downfield, & the other options are very inexperienced.
 
Why does everyone think our linebackers are a weakness? It's a position that is deep and experienced. McFadden is a stud with lots of game experience. Miller is an absolute athlete who has shown potential to be a key playmaker. Allen although not super athletic is big and extremely smart. And then we have 2 freshman coming in who were great recruits. I'm not worried about linebacker at all
 
Our biggest weakness will be QB if Ramsey is the starter. And I think the defensive front could prove to be a problem. But the rest of the roster is very deep with good skill and experience.
