Comparing start of season 2020 to a 2021 projection
Short answer: yes it is.
I count 3 walk-ons on the 2020 start of season depth chart. Last year's non-CB depth was pathetically paper-thin. In hindsight, the end-of-year drop-off could have reasonably been predicted. I, for one, vastly under-estimated the risk with such a heavy reliance on walk-ons.
