Way-Too-Early 2025 Defensive Two-Deep Depth Chart for Oregon

I already did my offensive two-deep projection, and now it's time to focus on the defense. In this projection, I am assuming that Derrick Harmon, Bryce Boettcher, Kobe Savage, and Jamaree Caldwell are all leaving, although there is a chance that some or all of them may return.
