Projecting the post-spring Michigan State football offensive depth chart

Without the aid of spring ball, where do position groups sit on the offensive side of the ball?

Running back

  1. Elijah Collins
  2. Anthony Williams Jr.
  3. Brandon Wright or Jordon Simmons or Donovan Eaglin or Connor Heyward

This group is pretty cut and dry right now. Collins is the go-to guy with Ant Williams playing a change-of-pace/receiving/jet sweep role. Running back is a spot where true freshmen can make immediate impacts and Jordon Simmons definitely has a shot to earn some playing time next year. I’d expect Brandon Wright and Connor Heyward to get on the field some as well, but with Wright it’s just too early to know what he can contribute and Heyward may work best at another hybrid-type position.
