We go through this exercise a few times leading up to the season and with spring ball announced as March 19 for Ohio State, it feels like a good time to see where things stand as a good baseline for what the two-deep depth chart could look like this fall.
We threw our best guess at where the offense stands on Wednesday, and now we’re following it up with what we believe the defense could look like when the Buckeyes snap the ball on September 2. OSU struggled on that side of the ball, especially in the secondary, so it’ll be key to get the right guys in the right position and scheme to make an improvement.
Off we go. Here’s our second effort at projecting the Ohio State football 2021 defensive depth chart.
