Predicting Oregon’s Week 1 depth chart
With Oregon’s season-opener against Fresno State less than a week away, the Ducks have now wrapped up preseason camp. That means the first official depth chart of the campaign is just around the corner.
We can probably expect Oregon’s two-deep to surface early this week. But until then, we took our best shot at predicting what that might look like.
Here is our guess at what Oregon’s two-deep will look like for week one. This projection does not include players who are injured, indefinitely suspended or were otherwise unavailable during preseason camp.
