Miller played right tackle in college and is likely a swing tackle prospect in the NFL. Ortega was also a tackle in college, but could be a candidate to move inside to guard or center as a pro. Casey is also a versatile prospect. Casey was a left tackle with the college football Broncos, but it wouldn’t be surprising to see him used at tackle/guard in Year 1.
Here’s a look at the projected offensive line depth chart heading into the summer.

Several players will be backups at multiple positions, such as Palczewski and Casey, who will provide coverage at both tackle and guard. Throckmorton and Peart will be key veteran backups to watch this summer as younger linemen fight for their spots.
