National signing day is February 3, and as attrition, NFL draft departures and defections continue to shape each team's roster, we'll be looking at the biggest area of need for each team, and what kind of help might be on the horizon on the recruiting trail.

Oregon

Ducks' biggest area of need: The most obvious hole in the Ducks’ current roster is at the quarterback position, which is still in flux after the one-year stopover of Vernon Adams Jr. Fellow FCS transfer Dakota Prukop, who is expected to start for the Ducks in 2016, is already on campus working out and taking classes, but even with his arrival, the quarterback position is the most important hole on Oregon’s roster and one that it must fill as it moves forward.

The Ducks might be on to something with their two-in-a-row graduate transfer system. Maybe this is the future of college football: allowing other schools to groom a player, get that player past the early bumps and bruises of a college career and then put him in a bigger spot to make bigger plays at a bigger school. But it’d also seem silly to completely burn up the old road map of talent evaluation and development. Having a stockpile of quarterbacks is necessary. So few teams can get through the season with just one guy capable of playing (no need to look past Oregon in 2015 for evidence of that).

With new quarterback coach David Yost -- who has groomed signal-callers like Chase Daniel (currently with the Kansas City Chiefs) and Blaine Gabbert (currently with the San Francisco 49ers) -- Oregon will likely want to prove that it can still groom its own quarterback in-house. Without talented players coming up through the Ducks' ranks it’s going to get increasingly difficult to recruit high school quarterbacks to Eugene. -- Chantel Jennings

Help is on the way? While Prukop -- like Adams Jr. last year -- enters his one-year career at Oregon as the favorite to take over the starting quarterback spot, it would be surprising if the Ducks aren't able to find a long-term answer at the position in this 2016 class. ESPN 300 dual-threat quarterback Terry Wilson was a big recruiting win, as Oregon was able to pry him away from his Nebraska commitment.

The Ducks also found a local prospect they like very much in 6-foot-4, 210-pound pocket passer Justin Herbert. Oregon also has an interesting piece in Tristen Wallace, listed as the nation's No. 7 dual-threat quarterback but who will begin his career at Oregon as a wide receiver. He would be available if the Ducks ever needed to expand their search for a quarterback on the roster.

It will be surprising if the Ducks aren't able to turn one of these pieces into an answer at the quarterback position during their Oregon careers. -- Erik McKinney
