Ohio State football pre-spring depth chart for defense

Spring — as they say — has sprung in central Ohio, at least as far as the football program goes. Ohio State breaks the seal on its spring practice and there are a slew of storylines we’re interested to see develop. You can’t win a national championship in the spring, but you sure can get behind and make it tough to be in top form come the beginning of the season.

Here at Buckeyes Wire, we like to routinely check in on what we think the depth chart might look like for the football team, and the beginning of spring sure feels like a great time to do it. We last checked in our projection after the end of the Rose Bowl, and now that the roster is more solidified, we have a little more information to go on.

This thing will likely change more times than a politician’s stance on key issues, so hang with us as it all develops, especially at positions that are going through major overhauls and personnel changes.

Here’s a look at what we project and predict the defensive depth chart could look like as we sit here on the doorstep of spring ball for Ohio State. This comes on the heels of our projection on the offensive side of the ball.
