Tandaian No. 1 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Recently On3 Sports broke down some of the biggest players to leave the SEC this offseason through the transfer portal, and it just so happens that a pair of those players ended up coming to the Ducks. Oregon Football: Ducks find value in SEC transfer portal DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The Ducks did a good job getting some of the top transfers out of the SEC this season, leaving their former teams with holes to fill. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haywarduck Moderator No. 4 Share Posted June 7, 2022 The biggest transfer loss might be starting at qb for Auburn. Wouldn't that be a head scratcher if Ashford starts for Auburn and has a stellar year? I could see Ashford surprising college football more than I could see Mari'no'O killing it his first year at Miami. Of course I always was pulling for Robby to make it big. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have fit in with a Jerry Azzinaro defense that utilized tall, less bulky players like Brandon Bair, but 6'6" and below 300 does not matchup with Lanning, IMHO. Lanning wants a run-stuffer, like our 330 lb. transfer from Washington, Sam Taimani, or an agile pass-rusher and it seems to me that Jones is a tweener for those categories. Or I could be completely wrong! My thoughts anyway... 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that kind of size would have done well on Georgia's DL. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
