Throughout the past week I've run through the University of Oregon's statistical leaderboards. This has allowed us to take stock of who the best in program history are in a variety areas from passing to rushing to receiving to defensive categories. Today, I'm continuing this exercise by putting together the school's top special teams list. Within this story is a breakdown of the team's top punt and kickoff returners as well as who tops the school's place kicking and punting lists. Included are top single-season and career lists for each facet of the game. Specialist Camden Lewis completed his polarizing career in the Fiesta Bowl last week and now finds himself at or near the top of many of the school's leaderboards. You'll notice that numerous players from the past decade are included on these lists, including one expected to be on the 2024 roster too...

Where CB Kam Alexander stands among the top-rated transfers in Dan Lanning era As the offseason continues to roll on, Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducksc continue to work their magic in the transfer portal and put together a roster for the 2024 season. While much of the roster building has consisted of stars from 2023 announcing that they will return for 2024, the Ducks also picked up a new addition on Monday, with former UTSA cornerback Kam Alexander announcing his transfer to Oregon after an official visit in Eugene over the weekend. Alexander is a sixth-year senior who will come in and compete for a starting spot right away, and could be one of the bigger instant-impact players on the defense. He was one of the top-graded CBs in the nation a year ago, according to Pro Football Focus, and has a high upside in Eugene. So where does he rank among the 28 (non-specialist) Oregon transfers in the Lanning era? There are two ways to look at it. For starters, you can take into account the 247Sports Transfer Portal rankings. However, those rankings don’t always hold true to what we see playing out on the field — for instance, Bo Nix was a 3-star prospect in the portal, who finished his college career as a Heisman Trophy finalist in New York. For good measure, I added my own rankings based on how good each player ended up being in Eugene. With all of that being said, let’s take a look at the best transfers that the Ducks have landed since Lanning has been here, and see where Alexander mixes in...

10 Players we want the Chargers to take in the 2024 NFL Draft for Justin Herbert Besides Marcus Mariota — who backs up Jalen Hurts — Justin Herbert is the only quarterback for Oregon Ducks fans to root for in the NFL, and it has been hard to watch the Los Angeles Chargers in recent years. Head coach Brandon Staley and GM Tom Telesco were both fired earlier in 2023, and the Chargers need to make big changes before they can start to contend for the playoffs. The benefit of another losing season for Los Angeles is quality draft capital. In the 2024 NFL Draft, the Chargers have the No. 5 overall pick and a pick in every subsequent round. This year’s draft will be key to the Chargers’ future, and their selections in the first two rounds will be especially important. Below is a list of the 10 players I’d like to see the Chargers select to improve Justin Herbert’s chances on offense. Los Angeles has plenty of defensive needs as well, but I’m focused on how the Chargers can give Herbert the best tools to succeed in the next few seasons...

5 things to know about Oregon's new cornerback Kam Alexander All football teams have depth. But it’s the quality of depth that separates the good teams from the great ones. When Dan Lanning was hired, one of his main objectives at Oregon was to improve the quality of depth on the roster and after two seasons, he has succeeded. His success continues with the Ducks landing former UT-San Antonio corner Kameryn Alexander. He’ll be a graduate senior for Oregon in 2024 and will have just one year of eligibility remaining.

Kam Alexander Breaks Down Oregon Commitment On Monday, Oregon picked up a commitment from USTA transfer cornerback Kameryn Alexander. He broke down his decision with Ducks Digest and shared part of his football story. "Because of the people," he said of his decision. "Also the environment is just amazing. Not many people travel to that side, especially travel to Oregon and they don't realize how great of an atmosphere they have. "The coaches are genuine, it's just a place to be. And it's just an all around good situation for me to even consider going there." Assistant wide receivers coach Antonio Parks, who joined the Oregon staff prior to the 2023 season, came over from USTA and played a big role in his recruitment. "With AP, he was the guy who pulled up my film for me to go to UTSA, so the coach could see. So when he got to Oregon, he did the same thing and he wanted me to come to Oregon."

5 Things You Need To Know About New Oregon Quarterback Dillon Gabriel For the last couple of years, Oregon Ducks fans have enjoyed seeing Bo Nix play at the QB position. In 2022, Bo Nix passed for 3,593 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions. He had fourteen rushing touchdowns. This season, he would follow that with an incredible senior season that would lead him to be a finalist for the Heisman Trophy. Bo Nix passed for 4,508 yards, 45 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions. He also has six rushing touchdowns. Nix was also named the Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Year. It goes without saying that the QB playing for Oregon in 2024 would have some huge shoes to fail.
