It’s been a week since Michigan football held its annual spring game, so now we’re moving into speculation mode (as well as recruiting) until fall camp begins in August.
The Wolverines return the fifth-most production in the country, which means there aren’t a lot of questions about who will start where, though cornerback has some uncertainty. It is the only position that lost its main starters wholesale (the good news is that when Gemon Green was injured, Will Johnson was beyond serviceable, if not incredible). There are a couple of interesting transfers who came in: Ernest Hausmann and Josaiah Stewart both looked very good in the spring game. The defensive line is absolutely loaded, to boot.
That said, here is our best guess at the current defensive depth chart for the Michigan Wolverines now that spring ball has come to a close.
