Freshman Colton Prater and sophomore Connor Lanfear are listed as starters at guard, while senior Hardreck Walker was listed as a starting defensive tackle on the Texas A&M depth chart, which was released on Thursday.Prater and Lanfear are new starters on a rebuilt offensive line that will include returning starter Avery Gennesy at left tackle, redshirt freshman Erik McCoy at center and senior Jermaine Eluemunor at right tackle. Until about two weeks ago Eluemunor was at right guard, but he previously played tackle in junior college.The post-camp depth chart comes just over a week before the Aggies open the season on Sept. 3 against No. 16 UCLA at Kyle Field.Texas A&M football coach Kevin Sumlin had previously indicated some positions would not have a clear starter. Those positions include running back, tight end, and defensive tackle.The running back depth chart listed junior James White or junior Keith Ford or freshman Trayveon Williams.Junior Tanner Schorp or junior Kalvin Cline are listed as possible starters at tight end, though A&M in recent years has rarely started a game with that position on the field.Quarterback Trevor Knight and receivers Christian Kirk, Ricky Seals-Jones, and Josh Reynolds were obvious starters. Damion Ratley is the fourth starter at receiver, but probably only because Speedy Noil is suspended for the season-opener.Among the other "ors," defensively, junior Zaycoven Henderson or Kingsley Keke are listed at the other first-team defensive tackle slot alongside Walker, who perhaps surprisingly is listed ahead of sophomore Daylon Mack.Of course, the starting defensive ends are Myles Garrett and Daeshon Hall.Sophomore Otaro Alaka is the starter at middle linebacker with senior Shaan Washington on the weak side and sophomore Richard Moore on the strong side.However, the Aggies are expected to open in a nickel package against UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen. In that case, Donovan Wilson would be at nickel back, likely replacing Moore on the field.Returning starters Justin Evans and Armani Watts are the safeties. Nick Harvey and Priest Willis, a transfer from UCLA, are listed as the starting cornerbacks.Daniel LaCamera is the place kicker and Shane Tripucka is listed ahead of Braden Mann at punter.WR 4 Damion Ratley, 6-3, 195, Jr-1L, Yoakum, TX (Yoakum/Blinn JC)19 Jeremy Tabuyo, 5-11, 195, Sr-3L, Honolulu, HI (St. Louis)LT 65 Avery Gennesy, 6-5, 315, Sr-1L, Southaven, MS (Southaven/East Mississippi)75 Koda Martin, 6-6, 305, So-1L, Manvel, TX (Manvel)LG 76 Colton Prater, 6-4, 295, Fr-HS, Bossier City, LA (Airline)77 Ryan McCollum, 6-5, 285, Fr-HS, Spring, TX (Klein Oak)C 64 Erik McCoy, 6-4, 305, Fr-RS, Lufkin, TX (Lufkin)55 Austin Anderson, 6-4, 297, Fr-HS, Mineola, TX (Mineola)RG 70 Connor Lanfear, 6-6, 315, So-1L, Buda, TX (Buda)78 Keaton Sutherland, 6-5, 310, So-1L, Flower Mound, TX (Marcus)RT 72 Jermaine Eluemunor, 6-4, 325, Sr-1L, Denville, NJ (Morris Knolls/Lackawanna (PA))50 Tank Davis, 6-4, 290, So-SQ, Garland, TX (Lakeview Centennial)TE 86 Tanner Schorp, 6-3, 250, Jr-1L, San Antonio, TX (Reagan)89 Kalvin Cline, 6-5, 255, Jr-TR, Ft.
