As most hardcore football fans know, the glamour and glitz always goes to the QBs, RBs, and WRs, but the meat and potatoes of football on the offensive end starts with the offensive lineman. Without good blocking, plays can break down, players get hurt, and timing is off. The two main primary, high profile, positions on the offensive line are the Center and the Left Tackle. The center is the QB of the line while the left tackle has to protect the blind side of all right-handed QBs. This year, there isn’t as much hype for a “stud” left tackle as in previous years, but there are still many good overall offensive line prospects.
Some of the top names projected in the draft for LT are Andrus Peat from Stanford and Ereck Flowers from Miami, both came in with arm lengths over 34”, which seems to be the magic number for LTs in the NFL. At Guard, La’el Collins of LSU seems to be the top rated, but a lot of people love Arie Kouandijo of Alabama. No Centers are projected to go in the 1st round, which is typical for most drafts, but Oregon’s Hroniss Grasu and Auburn’s Reese Dismukes seems to top most team’s list. Brandon Scherff of Iowa is also projected for round 1, but it’s unknown as to whether he will play RT or G in the NFL. This class may not be top heavy, but it seems like a very deep class that can do well with the right coaching.
