2017 Offensive Depth Charts

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.

What is so interesting to me is the Bengals have Lechler working at LT. I never imagined he has enough quickness and lateral movement to play there.

It maybe even should be: If you start on the OL for NDSU, you are going to get a look. Whether or not it turns into anything is up in the air, but if you can play on our line you are going to be noticed.

I was thinking that too.

Then again we had Joe Haeg at LT and Connor was training to play on the left while Lechler spent 4 years on the right. Probably didn't make sense to take Lechler out of his position for only 1 year.

It is much easier to transition from left tackle to left guard than flip sides where the mental memory of stepping right vs left is really really hard. It's totally opposite everything

I predict zero true freshman play. A couple who could help now but in such small doses. Just loaded.

So you're saying redshirting everyone is better than playing half the freshman class because "they are ready"?

Me too. If there are some injuries I could see a DE play but in a perfect world it's only a handful of games to preserve the redshirt

Redshirting every player 2 years in a row will pay dividends in 2020 and 2021

Provided they stay in the program and do not leave

That's fine if they do. If they are too short sighted or too impatient to learn, develop physically, and grow mentally by learning how to do it the right way, they won't make it in our program. Last time I checked we don't recruit many players who stack up physically at 18 years old. It's just flat out rare.

If you look at our 2016 class, we've only lost 2 players. One was gone in the first month of fall camp and another in spring ball due to non football related stuff. And we've retained most of the walk ons.
