Its time to focus on the defense and make our way-too-early-pre-roster depth chart predictions. The Beavers defense in 2016 was led by their surprisingly strong secondary, but will lose a few key players from that unit. The defense (especially the linebacking core) was hampered by injuries last season, but that could end up being a blessing in disguise. Let’s take a look at how the depth chart could look next season. Also, keep in mind that national signing day is less than a month away, so Oregon State could add a few talented recruits or junior college transfers that aren’t listed in the predictions below.
