My Wish List for the Michigan State Football 2009 Depth Chart

by malinakj on Nov 13, 2008 1:17 PM CST

I am currently going through the returning/active roster for MSU football 2009 season. This is my wish list of who I would like to see play based solely on-field production, and incoming freshman will be placed in the depth chart. NOTE: I will only go 4 deep at RB, the rest of the positions I will only go 3 deep.

With the Offensive Line, I am basically going with what the depth chart was from the 2008 season. Because, the development of a offensive linemen is different than any other position on any college football team. Coaches have an idea of who is progressing, but offensive linement are like diamonds in the rough. You can have a 2 star offensive lineman be a College All-American, likewise you can have a 5 star OL, be a flop. Predicting the depth chart of the OL is the most difficult for me with this blog.
