Oh boy do I love this posting of expected contributors, depth charts, etc. I feel I can get a much better picture of what to expect than just hearing people talk about how many stars the expected players may have earned earlier. Dedication and the practice grind makes contributors. This is why coaches comments are so telling, especially if they detail what particular players need to work on to get better.

 

I sure hope that Bear Alexander has matured and become a grinder because he was anything but that at Georgia. He thought he was great and often got chippy with grown men offensive linemen who regularly took him down a peg or three. So he pouted, felt underappreciated, and decided to transfer to USC. Hopefully he has grown up and is ready to grind for the Ducks.

Four "What If's" for Oregon's 2025 Football Season

 

When you lose a Heisman finalist at quarterback, three of your top four receivers, a 1,000-yard rusher, a first-round NFL Draft pick at offensive tackle, and three defensive players selected within the first 90 picks, it’s only natural for questions to arise in Eugene. The result? Plenty of uncertainty—and just as many hypotheticals—about what the 2025 Oregon Ducks football season might look like.

 

With spring practice now over a month in the rearview mirror and more than two months remaining until Montana State rolls into Autzen Stadium for the season opener, it’s the perfect time to start asking: What if?

New York Giants' Kayvon Thibodeaux Back In Oregon, Training With Matayo Uiagalelei

 

Looking to improve off a 2024 season cut short by a wrist injury, former Oregon Ducks defensive end and current New York Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux posted a video of himself working out on the field of Autzen Stadium with Ducks star defender Matayo Uiagalelei.

 

Another video also made waves online on Monday with the former Duck teaching current sophomore defensive end Matayo Uiagalelei how to throw opposing players off their set point. In the video, Thibodeaux critiques Uiagalelei's grip as the two target each others' wrists to throw off an opposing block

Let's take a closer look at the tight-ends as we prepare for fall camp.

The Oregon Ducks saw one of the best tight ends in program history, Terrance Ferguson, leave for the NFL after the 2024 season. Despite that, you'd be hard-pressed to find many fans who aren't arguably more excited to see what's to come at the position in 2025, with all due respect to Ferguson.

It's Kenyon Sadiq season in Eugene, and expectations are high for the junior TE who has been touted as one of the best players on the team and one of the best tight ends in the nation. He's shown flashes of brilliance over the past two years, and now, as the clear-cut TE1 — and with a bigger role due to the Evan Stewart injury — the runway is clear for takeoff.

Overall Oregon Ducks Offensive Line Check-In

The standard has been set astronomically high for the offensive line in Eugene, thanks to back-to-back Joe Moore Award finalists under OL coach A'Lique Terry. Getting back to that level of play will be a tall task this year, as the Ducks have just one returning starter among the front five — center Iapani Laloulu. Around him, Oregon will use a mix of transfers and home-grown talent to fill out the starting five, and likely utilize the first couple of games of the year to figure out the best combination of players to do so. There is a ton of talent at the position with the likes of Isaiah World and Emmanuel Pregnon anchoring the left side, but how cohesive everything will be together is yet to be seen.

I've been waiting for the season to start before commenting on Makhi Hughes as a new running back for Oregon. However, I have started looking at his film while at Tulane. I'm really impressed with this running back.

I'm not the only one impressed with Makhi. Pro Football Focus is raving about this great transfer for Oregon.

Makhi Hughes video

Makhi Hughes Video gives me confidence Oregon running game will continue to prosper. Makhi has is a complete running back: power, vision, balance, ability to laterally shift to avoid tackles and move to space, almost never goes down on first contac! I am pleased that Makhi will be a Duck running back this season!
