Arguably the position most dependent on chemistry and continuity, Wisconsin returning every offensive lineman on the roster from last season puts the Badgers in an incredibly advantageous position entering fall camp.
With Michael Deiter, Beau Benzschawel, and David Edwards all spurning the NFL (for a year, at least) to come back to Madison, the Badgers return arguably the best and most talented unit in the country.
Despite the return of every linemen, however, the starting five is expected to change in 2018. As noted by offensive coordinator/offensive line coach Joe Rudolph during an ESPN Madison radio show at a Mendota Gridiron Club golf event in late June, Deiter is returning to the left guard position that he played as a redshirt freshman in 2015.
