With the exception of possibly adding a few graduate transfers, Florida football has all its players for the 2019 campaign. What will the depth chart look like?

Dan Mullen infused Gator Nation with hype, excitement and hope following an intensely positive 2018 season. The success of last season brings the advent of new challenges for the future, including heightened expectations for the 2019 season.

To even consider the possibility of eclipsing those expectations, Mullen needs to replace several talented contributors who graduated or declared early for the NFL draft. Which explains why the coaching staff quickly pivoted from the Gators’ dominant Peach Bowl victory to the recruiting trail.

Mullen and company’s 2019 recruiting class didn’t disappoint. By selling prospects on the accomplishments of the 2018 season and future optimism, Mullen inked the Gators first top-ten recruiting class since 2014.

With National Signing Day in the rearview mirror and the roster now fixed – except for the possibility of adding a few graduate transfers – the task of determining the starting lineup and rotation begins in earnest. Of course, spring will bring more clarity, but assumptions can now be made about who will get playing time at each position.

Here’s an early look at the possible two-deep lineup for the 2019 Gators.
