Who would be the projected backups across the offensive line? With as many young players as we'll have, I would assume we'll go two-deep  and then some  this season.
Whoever loses out on the Beachum/Chase battle at left tackle with be the backup there, and Robiskie presumably will be the backup center. But who backs up at the guard spots and at right tackle?

If the season started today, I'd say the backup guards are Kelly Turner and Josh LeRibeus, with Ross Nigh (?) backing up Tommy Poynter at right tackle.

Is J.T. Brooks backing up at tackle or guard? At his height, I would think tackle, but obviously, I'm not there to check it out.

I'm eager to see the redshirt freshmen: Turner, LeRibeus, Beachum, Tennison. It's starting to sound like all four might end up getting at least some playing time this year, including a couple of potential starters. That means building blocks for the future of the line.

Dont forget Chase Smith , If he's healthy should be in the picture.

Based on the homepage video, he sure looks strong. Hope his injuries are a thing of the past!
