Position	First	Second	Third	Fourth
DL	Bryce Huff	Ronald Blair	Jabari Zuniga	Aaron Adeoye
DL	Quinnen Williams	Sheldon Rankins	Tanzel Smart
DL	Folorunso Fatukasi	Nathan Shepherd	Jonathan Marshall
DL	John Franklin-Myers	Hamilcar Rashed Jr.	Jeremiah Valoaga	Kyle Phillips

Depth Chart update for Philadelphia game has Huff as the starter, Ronald Blair as backup so he must be healthy enough...
Q and Foley look to be open day starters...
Sheldon Rankins is a lock to make the 53...
Hamilcar Rashed Jr., Jonathan Marshall also seem to be primed to make the roster...
Nathan Sheperd looked good so far, but could be a surprising cut/release or trade...
Tanzel Smart not sure if he qualifies for practice squad...
Jabari Zuniga practice squad?
Kyle Phillips active 53 or practice squad?
Jeremiah Valoaga, Aaron Adeoye practice squad?

Figuring the First & Second groups are locks to make the roster who if any will make the active 53 from the Third or Fourth tier?

Jonathan Marshall of the group should make the roster not only because he is this year's draft pick is that he has put together a solid off season, OTAs and preseason...

If Ronald Blair either aggravates his injury then expect Kyle Phillips over Jabari Zuniga to make the cut...

between chronic injuries and not flashing, you figure Zuniga is tap dancing on paper thin ice

Zuniga is Joe Douglas' project player last year but from last year to this preseason he shown nothing but practice material... and that is being nice...
