Alabama A&M looking to establish depth chart

NORMAL, Alabama --  Through the first two days of full-contact practice, Alabama A&M head football coach Anthony Jones said he's beginning to see the wheat separate itself from the tares.
 
Some guys are beginning to think too much and play slower, Jones said. Some receivers aren't as eager as they were without pads. The same can be said for running backs and linemen on both sides of the ball. 

Players will have their first chances to prove themselves in game-like situations later in the week. The Bulldogs have scrimmages set for Thursday and Saturday. 
 
"Then, we'll be able to get some grades going and kind of set a tentative depth chart," Jones said. 
 
The Bulldogs open their season on the road against Southwestern Athletic Conference foe Grambling State (La.) Aug. 31.
