Re: 2017 Offensive Depth Charts
Dom mentioned on the 6:00 sports that it looks like Dillon Radunz will start at LT, with Colin Connor sliding over to LG.

For sure........

That's awesome. Connor is a better run blocker than pass blocker and will be an elite LG with great pass blocking skills. Radunz is athletic as hell.
Also love the size of Radunz, Connor, Volson, Kuhnert, and Johnson. I like how this would lock in 4/5 of our Oline for 2 years. Johnson and Radunz have room to grow.
The size is solid at 6-6 290, 6-5 310, 6-4 301, 6-4 304, and 6-6 312. A little lighter than last year but this is a more athletic group and should kick ass pulling
Re: 2017 Offensive Depth Charts
Not sure if this has been mentioned but Kuhnert has a sore shoulder right now per Klieman. But he can play apparently.
I would prefer Connor at guard but I thought he did a heck of a job at tackle last season. I hope the Bison can run the ball like 90% of the plays this season :D

Gotta get the best combo of lineman out there. Connor is mobile enough to play guard. Radunz at LT for possibly 4 years has me giddy.

I agree, Colin has been outstanding at tackle.

Yep. This reminds me of when Cornick moved from LT to make room for Billy Turner. Made the whole unit better.

I think our line will be should be really good and have great depth even after losing so many last year. It will be interesting to see if they rotate guys like Cordell volson to give them an occasional breather
Re: 2017 Offensive Depth Charts
If we keep putting OL in the NFL, it's going to continue to be easy to recruit guys like Radunz. If you're a 4 year starter at LT for NDSU, you're going to get a shot.

I think you could stretch that to either side. Arguably NDSU's most successful OL in the NFL (despite it only being a year) has been Haeg and he started at RT before the move to LT. Lechler in camp currently. Cornick was successful. We've had some guards with shots as well but I think injuries took away their chances.
