The Ducks have 19 verbal commits, including the newest and splashiest one, Arik Armstead. Counting Darron Thomas' full ride they have about six more scholarships to award. Here are the targets for those crucial six additions:
Shaq Thompson
The 6-2, 215-lb. safety is deciding between Washington, Oregon and Cal. Speculation centers around Washington as Thompson just took a weekend visit there, has a close friend on the team, and has developed a bond with new Washington coach Tosh Lupoi.
Bralon Addison and Chance Allen
The two swift, athletic wide receivers visited Oregon this week and are childhood friends, playing at rival schools a few miles from each other in Missouri City, Texas. Both originally committed to other schools but came away impressed by their Oregon visit.
Shane Brostek
Profiled Sunday in The Duck Stops Here, Brostek is a 6-3, 300-lb. offensive lineman from Hawaii with tremendous agility for his size, able to pull, slide-step and block downfield, a great fit...

It means the Ducks have another big, strong body at the defensive end position, a spot where they were thin in numbers. Armstead is, at last report, 6-8, 295. He has good quickness and strength, so he's an excellent candidate to join the rotation at Terrell Turner's strong side defensive end spot as a true freshman. He's enrolling for spring term and will be able to participate...
