The Oregon Ducks had one of the most successful seasons in program history last year, going 13-1 with a Big Ten Championship win and a No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff. Now, in 2025, they will look to reach the same heights once again, but this time around with almost an entirely new roster.
Since coming to Eugene, Dan Lanning has recruited at an elite level. In 2025, talent acquisition and development will be tested. Gone are the players from past regimes; in will be the blue-chip players whom Lanning and his staff have hand-picked.
On offense, players like Dillon Gabriel, Tez Johnson, Jordan James, Terrance Ferguson, and Josh Conerly are leaving for the NFL. The defense sees the likes of Jeffrey Bassa, Jordan Burch, Derek Harmon, and Jabbar Muhammad move on as well.
So, who will step up and replace them? That’s the million dollar question in Eugene. We have our depth chart projections on offense and defense, but the next several weeks of practice will determine a lot for the Ducks. As we continue our preview of the spring season leading up to Oregon’s annual spring game, let’s take a deep dive, position by position.
We’ve tackled the offense, with previews on Oregon’s quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end, and O-line situations. Now, let’s kick off the defensive previews.
Oregon’s D-line room is in an interesting spot heading into next season. It’s one of the position groups Dan Lanning has recruited most out of high school since coming to Oregon, and it looks like we’ll finally get a chance to see his recruits take center stage this season. There isn’t much starting experience in the room but no shortage of talent either.
