The Bruins are two weeks into spring camp with the opening kickoff of 2022 still five months away, but the internal personnel breakdown still remains top of mind for everyone keeping an eye on practice.

Looking so far ahead requires much more speculation and guess work than it would in the later days of fall camp, especially considering the transfer market hasn't completely cooled off and several key players have yet to arrive on campus. Freshmen safety Kamari Ramsey, tight end Jack Pedersen and receiver Jadyn Marshall were unable to enroll early like quarterback Justyn Martin or defensive back Clint Stephens, and Rutgers transfer left tackle Raiqwon O'Neal is not yet in Westwood either.

As such, projecting where they will end up in UCLA football's depth chart is based mostly off hype and guesswork, and those players will be marked off as not part of the spring roster.

Still, gathering information from the completed spring practices, taking into account what we've heard from coaches and players in interviews and making inferences here and there, this is All Bruins' latest look at UCLA football's 2022 depth chart.
