Clemson Football: 5 position battles that will continue through summer

3. Offensive Line

The offensive line is going to have nothing but competition during this preseason.

The Tigers are replacing four starters and will only return Jackson Carman from last year. Cade Stewart (center), Jordan McFadden (right tackle), Matt Bockhorst (left guard) and Will Putnam (right guard) are the expected starters, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be competition from guys like Blake Vinson and Walker Parks during the preseason.

Even if the starters are etched in stone, one of the biggest questions will be what the second-string group looks like. It’s all about building depth and there’s going to be plenty of competition from that perspective.
