Oregon features a stingy defense of their own, who are the key contributors for defensice coordinator Andy Avalos?

35 Troy Dye 6’4 225 ILB Senior

Dye is an undersized linebacker that can play safety at the next level. However well is up for debate though. He’s an excellent sideline to sideline player that can cover some ground. Perfect fit for this generation of pace and space offensive philosophies. I do have questions if he can hold up at the next level. Medical has been an issue as he is currently playing with a broken thumb and various other leg maladies. He likes to avoid contact and make the plays when they are available to him. He has accepted his Senior Bowl invitation.

34 Jordon “Fat Mac” Scott 6’1 335 DT Junior

Scott is a classic 3-4 space eating nose tackle type that generally occupies a gap or two to free up his teammates. He’s a much better athlete than he’s given credit for. A pass rush demon in the form of a bigger Jurrell Casey.

4 Thomas Graham 5’11 188 CB Junior

One part of Oregon’s fantastic cornerback duo. He does not lack for confidence even if he gets beaten once or twice. Agility is a major plus. Has been dinged up some this season and has generally played more off ball and than press in Andy Avalos’ scheme.

15 Deommodore Lenoir 5’11 190 CB Junior

The other half of the starting duo for Oregon. Ball skills are elite. Fundamentally sound as a tackler. The more physical of the two at the point of attack. He has been used closer to the line as a press cover corner in Andy Avalos’ scheme this season.
