2018 Michigan Football Depth Chart - End Of Summer Inside Info from James Yoder

My best-guess 2018 Michigan Football Depth Chart - how I think it will look on September 1 in South Bend. I reserve the right to change this list after I get feedback from fall practice leading up to kickoff in South Bend on the night of September 1st.

***James Yoder's UPDATED Michigan Football Depth Chart from August 15th is here***

Follow James Yoder on Twitter

Fall practice starts in 4 days - this Friday and we will have all kinds of new on the Michigan Football Report this weekend!

Several positions have changed since I put my mid-Summer Michigan Football Depth Chart on my Michigan Football Report Insider Facebook page. Most notably, see changed at safety, OL, and TE.
