Breaking Down the Depth Chart on Offense So Far

Ohio State is well into fall camp, and the Buckeyes’ offensive depth chart is beginning to take shape.

Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr go position by position through the Ohio State offense to break down where things currently stand, from Julian Sayin and the quarterback room to a potentially fascinating battle between Bo Jackson and Isaiah West at running back.

They also discuss how Ohio State could use freshman Legend Bey, Devin McCuin’s rise at wide receiver, where Kyle Parker fits once healthy, how Chris Henry Jr. and Brock Boyd could get onto the field, and the incredible depth the Buckeyes appear to have at tight end.

Then it’s time to sort through the offensive line. Is Ohio State settling in on Ian Moore, Luke Montgomery, Carson Hinzman, Austin Siereveld and Phillip Daniels as its starting five? And which linemen would be the first off the bench if Ohio State needs to make a change?

Plus, Tony and Tom take a look at the early kicking competition.
