The fourth and final day of combine testing will feature the big boys on the offensive line running and jumping. As it stands right now, left tackle Rasheed Walker and swing interior offensive lineman Sean Rhyan are going to be unrestricted free agents in less than two weeks, and swing tackle Darian Kinnard is going to be a restricted free agent. On top of that, starting center Elgton Jenkins will likely become a cap casualty, too, so the Green Bay Packers could potentially have room to add four new faces on their offensive line in 2026, depending on how they feel about former draft picks Travis Glover and John Williams, who spent all of last year on injury lists instead of the active roster.
Here’s a quick rundown of the top-200 offensive line prospects at the combine, per the consensus draft board.
Tackles
- #5 Francis Mauigoa, Miami
- #6 Spencer Fano, Utah
- #22 Kadyn Proctor, Alabama
- #23 Caleb Lomu, Utah
- #24 Monroe Freeling, Georgia
- #38 Blake Miller, Clemson
- #39 Max Iheanachor, Arizona State
- #51 Gennings Dunker, Iowa
- #65 Caleb Tiernan, Northwestern
- #81 Brian Parker II, Duke
- #100 Isaiah World, Oregon
- #105 Austin Barber, Florida
- #108 Dametrious Crownover, Texas A&M
- #124 Kage Casey, Boise State
- #129 Drew Shelton, Penn State
- #139 J.C. Davis, Illinois
- #151 Jude Bowry, Boston College
- #152 Trey Zuhn III, Texas A&M
- #160 Markel Bell, Miami
- #173 Aamil Wagner, Notre Dame
- #186 Fa’alili Fa’amoe, Wake Forest
- #190 Alex Harkey, Oregon
While I’m listing these players at their college positions, it’s worth noting that the majority of scouts I’ve talked to in the league believe that Iowa’s Gennings Dunker will end up at guard at the next level, while Duke’s Brian Parker II and Texas A&M’s Trey Zuhn III will be centers. Both Parker and Zuhn got extensive time at the center position during their all-star games.
Dametrious Crownover is the most interesting offensive lineman out of the bunch because he has an extremely high ceiling and an extremely low floor. He played right tackle for A&M, who will probably have four guys drafted from that offensive line this year, but has the potential to play either tackle or guard at the next level.
By the way, our own Tyler Brooke got general manager Brian Gutekunst on the record at the combine about why the line has gotten bigger in recent years.
Guards
- #16 Olaivavega Ioane, Penn State
- #40 Emmanuel Pregnon, Oregon
- #46 Chase Bisontis, Texas A&M
- #78 Keylan Rutledge, Georgia Tech
- #106 Billy Schrauth, Notre Dame
- #126 Beau Stephens, Iowa
- #147 Jalen Farmer, Kentucky
- #162 Ar’maj Reed-Adams, Texas A&M
- #172 D.J. Campbell, Texas
- #178 Jeremiah Wright, Auburn
- #183 Fernando Carmona, Arkansas
Keylan Rutledge (right guard in the clip above) is another guy who is a potential center convert. (If you haven’t picked up on it yet, a lot of the guys who play center in the NFL don’t do it in college because teams need them elsewhere.) He’s a true mauler of a lineman who comes from a run-heavy smashmouth scheme. I actually like him better than Chase Bisontis, who gives up a little too much penetration on down blocks for my liking.
Centers
- #62 Connor Lew, Auburn
- #74 Jake Slaughter, Florida
- #96 Sam Hecht, Kansas State
- #118 Logan Jones, Iowa
- #142 Parker Brailsford, Alabama
- #153 Pat Coogan, Indiana
- #164 Matt Gulbin, Michigan State
- #177 Jager Burton, Kentucky
Don’t expect the number one center in the class to run, as Connor Lew is coming off an ACL tear. Jake Slaughter has been a metrics darling for years now, but there were some doubters about him as a top-100 prospect in the league until he had a strong week in Mobile. For what it’s worth, I actually think Sam Hecht has a chance to be the best center in this class, as he possesses a good anchor and has a pretty well-rounded game.
The weight of Alabama’s Parker Brailsford will be interesting to monitor today. He played in the 280s this year, per sources in the scouting world, but everyone hopes he ends up at least weighing in the 290s in Indianapolis. The Packers also took multiple visits to see Michigan State play (even against lower competition like Youngstown State), which is odd considering that center Matt Gulbin is one of the team’s only NFL prospects (the only other Spartans invite for the combine is underclassman punter Ryan Eckley).
