Scout Defensive Depth Chart Breakdown

Steve Ryan gives you his spring depth chart breakdown, then discusses our D and gives his us his current depth chart.

 

Pretty basic but still a good breakdown. If anything, it threw a few names out there that we might have forgotten about, such as Jase Dean as a CB option. Here's to hoping that he's fully recovered from that Mizzou game last year. He could really provide us some depth... that's always good.

 

There's a breakdown of the O too, I'm not going to post the link, but you can find it with out too much trouble I'd think.

Seems like he's not too high on West starting - a bit surprising too since I thought most have West and Gomes penciled in as the two starters.

I like that they went through each defensive scenario/formation and through each position as it corelates to that formation.

I was pretty high on the Osborne kids coming out of high school. They were definitely not widely recruited, but have great size or athleticism to bring to our WR/S corp. It's too bad they havent found their way onto the field that much yet, but Huskers.com said Steven got some mop up time last year. I'd think they'd be perfect candidates for special teams studs, and let's hope Courtney develops into a solid safety for us.
