Updates to personnel listing in light of Stanford-SDSU depth chart:
1) Starter at LG changed from Fanaika to Hamilton. This is interesting. It is a position change for Hamilton. Not unheard of in the least, but if a tackle is better at guard than a guy (Fanaika) who started there last year, then that is saying something about how Hamilton is playing. Of course, the goal is to get the five best OL out there, which is apparently, right now, Little, Hamilton, HeBIG, Hall, and Burkett (kinda). Interesting that Sarell is not there ... yet.
2) Starter at C changed from Burkett to Dalman. Burkett is injured, or he'd be the starter. But it is interesting that Dalman has jumped Chaffin.
3) Starter at DT changed from DWP to Williams. I had assumed DWP would start at NT due to not only his girth, but also his performance in the spring relative to Williams, and the fact that Williams was coming off heart surgery. However, Williams performance in the summer has been good, and DWP has had a nagging injury, so Williams gets the nod.
4) Starter at CB changed from Murphy to Adebo. I am most surprised here. Murphy (a team captain) started most of last year, and Adebo didn't play one down. So the fact that Adebo gets the start says something about his ability. Murphy, of course, will be the NB.
