• Tony Moeaki is listed behind Kevin Boss on the tight end depth chart;
• Jon Baldwin and Steve Breaston are the top two receivers with Dwayne Bowe out;
• Dexter McCluster is listed as a receiver, not a running back;
• Dontari Poe is the No. 2 nose tackle behind Anthony Toribio;
• Jalil Brown and Javier Arenas are the No. 2 cornerbacks behind Stanford Routt and Brandon Flowers; and,
