With fall camp kicking off, Michigan has released its official roster for the 2022 season. Let's take a look at some quick observations scrolling through the roster.

Looks like one experiment may continue while another will not. Mike Sainristil is listed as DB and WR, while Kalel Mullings is only listed as LB. Two linebackers are now listed as EDGE so maybe the staff feels good about LB with Mullings?
Mike Sainristil listed as DB/WR.
Kalel Mullings only listed as LB.
Micah Pollard listed as EDGE instead of LB.
Tyler McLaurin listed as EDGE instead of LB.
Julius Welschof EDGE instead of DL.

A big complaint under Don Brown was around the recruiting and development of the defensive tackle position. Brown often favored undersized players adding weight and moving to the inside, like Carlo Kemp for instance. First glance at this roster and there are some big guys in the middle.
