In many cases, they don\u2019t come from the actual decision-makers. Some teams have admitted they were compiled by the team PR staff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Feel free to take a look at the depth chart.
