First guess: Kansas State offensive depth chart
Throughout Kansas State training camp we will periodically make projections on the team’s offensive and defensive depth chart. It will be relegated to our message board at KSO and will attempt to give the most up-to-date looks of what the lineups could be look in week one versus UT-Martin.
Our first effort will be on the offensive side of the ball that is now led by K-State offensive coordinator Conor Riley.
A battle exists at the back-up quarterback spot. Most of the quarterback room left after last season because it was time for Avery Johnson to take over. Who grabs the reins of the No. 2 spot between Ta’Quan Roberson and Jacob Knuth?

There’s not much of a mystery at the Kansas State running back spot. Let’s focus on the receivers. Everyone is confident where Jayce Brown and Keagan Johnson are at in the pecking order. How do we think the rest shakes out in August?

The biggest voids in the starting lineup come on the K-State offensive line because of the departures of Cooper Beebe, KT Leveston, Hayden Gillum and Christian Duffie. How do they replace that core that played together for multiple seasons?

It helps that Kansas State has two bonafide starters.

That leaves three spots open. The center job is probably determined for the most part as well. One tackle and one guard opportunity remain on the board. Who has the momentum to grab the chunk of playing time in those roles?
