O-line underclassmen depth

[CougPatrol]

Curious to know how our offensive line depth projects for 2016 & 2017. We lose 3 seniors next year, but we're poised to have a lot of skill player depth, including all of our QB's, RB's, most of our WR's with Priestier replacing Dom Williams.

Depth is always an illusion, as you never know who will transfer out, become ineligible, get injured, etc; but if our offensive line continues to develop, we should have a potent offense for the next 2-3 seasons.

For 2016, I'll say left to right Madison, Freeman, Sorenson, Middleton, Dillard. Beyond that, who knows. One of the guys that just arrived could be ready.

I read somewhere, that a couple of the freshman are really turning heads, but they are redshirting them. I'll try to find the article. As I recall, it said something to the affect of, Cedric Bigge-Duren is one of the best OL's CML has ever recruited. And Noah Myers is doing very, very well. As I recall, it was one of the coaches saying this.

Hopefully Cody O and Dillard will get quality reps this year. I don't think they will lose anything moving Madison over to the left side. He has the ability to handle the blindside.

It's exciting to know that we are going to have the right sized bodies in the future. The hope is that they have the feet and hands to match.

A quote from Jacob Thorpes article about 1st day of practice:
I overheard the strength coaches talking about how big the scout team offensive line is, and they're right. The freshmen offensive linemen are simply massive. None more so than the aptly-named Cedric Bigge-Duren, who checks in at 6-foot-6, 308-pounds and looks even bigger because of his curly mane. So, the freshman is bigger than all but a couple of the Seattle Seahawks offensive linemen. And, he didn't look particularly chubby, either.
