ESPN 53-man roster projections for former BYU players

Looking through every team's 53-man roster projections on ESPN, it looks like BYU is predicting 10 Cougars to be on opening day rosters this year, with 4 of them in starting roles, and another 3 competing for starting roles.

Predicted Starters are:

Michael Davis (CB, Chargers)
Kyle Van Noy (LB, Patriots)
Fred Warner (LB, 49ers)
Zach Wilson (QB, Jets)

There's also quite a few who ESPN has in competition for a starting role.  While they have them ultimately playing as backups, these could win a starting spot and will see plenty of time regardless. This group includes:

Tayson Hill (QB, Saints - competing with Jameis Winston)
Daniel Sorensen
(S, Chiefs - competing with Juan Thornhill)
Sione Takitaki (LB, Browns - competing with Jeremiah Owasu-Koromoah)

Others on projected opening day roster are:

Brady Christensen (OT, Panthers - #4 OT behind Taylor Moton, Cam Erving, Greg Little)
Khyris Tonga (DL, Bears - #3 NT behind Eddie Goldman and Bilal Nichols, in competiton with Mike Pennel for a roster spot)
Jamaal Williams (RB, Lions - #2 RB behind D'Andre Swift)
