Jim McElwain left spring practice with just six healthy scholarship offensive linemen, and he knew just how dire things would be for the Gators in the fall if they weren't patched up as quickly as possible.

"We had I think a pizza delivery guy, a bartender and one heck of an engineering student that came out and helped us get through spring practice," McElwain joked this May.

"That's another spot that just through numbers, there's going to be an opportunity for some guys to come in and possibly get some playing time."

McElwain didn't sit idly by and hope that Florida went through the 2015 season with no injuries. He kept his eyes and ears open for any possible transfers, and it paid off big-time.

The Gators added two-time FCS All-American tackle Mason Halter, then landed another transfer with immediate eligibility in N.C. State freshman center T.J. McCoy.

Florida now stands with 15 scholarship offensive linemen on the roster heading into the fall, just shy of the typical target number for most teams.

Now, the additions won't greatly help Florida's inexperience issue. Seven of the 15 linemen will be true freshmen, and the Gators still have just one player who has started a game at the FBS level.

But they certainly come closer to erasing the possible doomsday scenario Florida could have faced had it suffered a few injuries in the fall and been forced to play multiple true freshmen out of necessity.

Below is a quick look at a projected depth chart for the Gators heading into fall camp.
