Spring depth chart
- Thread starter Efejle
- Start date
I think there are a few that are relatively clear to start. For example:
CBs: Dixon and Tracy seem like locks to start
S: Neal, Cooper and Toure? (tough calls)
LBs: Rojas, Tatsch, Ebel and Arrington
DL: Vakalahi, Taupaki, Williams with some Cook, Brewer and Blanding thrown in
Edge: Granville, Ford and Burnett
QBs: Becht
RBs: Hanson, Peoples and Martin
OTs: Goodman, Donkoh?,
IOL: Donkoh?, Riker, Cousins and ?
TEs: Brahmer and Rapp
WRs: Howard, Gonzalez and Sowell
This is just from comments and tid bits. No way it's accurate.

Caleb Bacon will be starting at LB. He was 4 star in the portal and Iowa States best LB last year.
Lavar Arrington got moved to DE.
Brett Eskildsen will start at WR. He was Iowa States best WR last year.
Yvan Kemajou will start at DE I imagine.

Agreed with this lineup. When it's down on paper like that, seems like a talented roster. I think the OL/TE/RB group has the chance to be as good as anyone. Add Peoples in at RB and I think we should be able to run the ball against anyone on the schedule.
I think the only real question mark for me is WR production and front-7 depth. For what it's worth, coaching staff + Martin have recently said he's taking reps at WR this spring. I don't want that means about what they think of WR, or RB for that matter.
Unfortunately, Dom's injury is going to hold him back from actively participating in those key Spring reps. The Center position is the key for the OL. Live action reps help with recognizing defenses and making line calls.
