Offensive Line

  • Donavan Smith
  • Ali Marpet
  • Ryan Jensen
  • Alex Cappa
  • Demar Dotson
  • Earl Watford
  • Zack Bailey
  • Josh Leribeus
  • Caleb Benenoch

The offensive line has looked like the weak leak of the roster throughout the preseason so far. Smith, Marpet, Jensen, Cappa, and Dotson seem like an adequate starting group on paper but will have to step up their game in the regular season. Watford provides very good depth as he can step in at any of the five positions while undrafted rookie Zack Bailey also brings versatility to backup the guard and tackle positions. Leribeus and Benenoch offer solid veteran depth at center and tackle, respectively.
