From quarterback Dillon Gabriel to offensive tackle Josh Conerly Jr., the Ducks are all over CBS’ latest list of the top 100 college football players in the nation.
Oregon had six players make the list of top-tier athletes set to take the field next season and while there is always an argument for more Ducks in a flock, these six spots are well-deserved nods for the players.
The Ducks' new (expected) starting quarterback Dillon Gabriel has received a lot of attention since he decided to leave the Oklahoma Sooners for Dan Lanning's squad.
As spring practices and scrimmages unfold, Oregon players have also given Gabriel great reviews as excitement builds around this top-tier Oregon team.
Another fresh transfer on Oregon's roster, Evan Stewart has made a splash in Eugene after he left the Texas A&M Aggies.
A top recruit coming out of high school and one of the most sought after transfer players, Stewart committed to Lanning and the Ducks earlier this year and is set to become a key piece of Oregon's offense.
After the Washington Huskies beat up on Oregon twice last season just to lose in the National Championship game, and later lose their head coach, star cornerback Jabbar Muhammad decided it was time for green pastures (and uniforms).
Muhammad is arguably one of the top defensive players in the nation and will certainly be a vital part of Oregon's defensive secondary this season.
Yet another transfer that Lanning scooped up during the postseason is former Houston Cougar Jamaree Caldwell.
Caldwell is a menace on the defensive end of the ball and consistently disrupts plays with his quick twitch motion and incredible sense of where the ball is heading.
When Tez Johnson announced he would be returning to Oregon's roster for a final year, the hearts of Duck fans across the nation melted.
Last season, Johnson had 86 receptions for nearly 1,200 yards and scored 10 touchdowns through the air for Oregon.
Josh Conerly was part of an "anchor of an Oregon offensive line" last season for the Ducks that allowed a minuscule 5 sacks and 44.0 tackles for loss.
Entering his junior season with the Ducks, Conerly is set to become not just a leader in the locker room but a problem for defensive players to try to by pass.
