With another year under his belt, he’ll only get better. Marshall came in as a center, but moved to tackle last season and was almost instantly a star. With the starting job already secured, he could become scary good this season.Īt the tackle positions, Andrew Marshall should be pretty set to move forward with business as usual. In both games, he performed pretty well, including the upset of VPISU without Justin Thomas even playing. Cooper got some pretty significant playing time last season, as Freddie Burden dealt with a few injuries against Virginia Tech and in the TaxSlayer Bowl. I’ve already touched on Kenny Cooper earlier in the offseason, but will do so again here. Braun was one of only 17 offensive guards to be named to the list so yeah, that sounds like pretty high praise. As a freshman last season, Parker Braun came in and took a starting job, and now in Year 2, he has already been named to the Outland Trophy Watch List, which is awarded to the nation’s best interior lineman. We’ll most likely see a good bit of both of them, especially given Bryan’s flexibility to play tackle and guard.Įlsewhere on the offensive line, things are looking pretty fun. Once two highly-rated prospects, neither of these guys have really lived up to the expectations, but still have the ability to be solid players. Going into Fall practice, I only see on position that is really up for grabs, and that would be right guard, where Will Bryan is trying to fend off Shamire Devine. The team also added a few walk-ons in Blake Bradfield, Jack Coco, Hamp Gibbs, Joe Santrock, and William Lay.

In last season’s recruiting class, the Yellow Jackets added a whopping five new offensive linemen to the mix in Michael Minihan, Zach Quinney, Connor Hansen, Boe Tufele, and Charlie Clark. Overall, it should be a pretty experienced group.

ReturneesĪside from Burden, the Yellow Jackets return the rest of their starting offensive line, plus two other players with starting experience (Kenny Cooper and Shamire Devine). The last player Tech lost was Eason Fromayan, who forwent his senior season in order to pursue a career in NASCAR (no, I didn’t make that up). Klock was a guy I was always a big an of, as he had a lot of potential in this offense, but unfortunately, due to injuries, he was never really able to set himself apart. At some point, Burden should get an opportunity in the NFL, but thanks to a broken ankle suffered during the TaxSlayer Bowl, that may be put on hold.įormer Yellow Jacket Trey Klock also announced his intentions to transfer to Northwestern as a grad transfer. For the last two years he was here, Burden was the leader of the offensive line and was well-known for his athleticism from the center position. The bad news is who that player was: center Freddie Burden. The good news is that Georgia Tech only really lost one player from its offensive line last season. The overall goal is to examine what the depth chart will look like next season and look at realistic expectations for each position group. These articles will go position-by-position to look at players that have departed, players that return from a year ago, new faces at the position, and the overall outlook for the 2017 season.
