2026 NFL Draft Prospects: G

1/3/25: Ioane is a strong blocker at the point of attack with the ability to generate movement in the ground game. He is also a reliable pass protector. Ioane is explosive, can mirror speed rushers, and plays with physicality with a nasty streak. Ioane looks like a guard for the NFL and probably does not have the length to kick outside to tackle. Ioane played well in 2025 and impressed team sources.

1/3/25: Kendra is a tough guard who is a scrappy player at the point of attack. He has a strong build that makes him a plus run blocker with enough ability to be steady in pass protection.

1/3/25: Morris has the skill set to start in the NFL with good size, strength, quickness, and athleticism. However, Morris struggles with his conditioning and is not a good worker. Morris has a lot of talent, but must commit to working hard to rise. He has been solid but not especially impressive for Georgia in 2025. Morris would have been a starter at most schools, but at Georgia, he started out as a backup for Tate Ratledge in 2024. With Ratledge injured, Morris was very impressive as the replacement.

1/3/25: Rutledge had a quality 2025 season for the Yellow Jackets, showing strength at the point of attack. At 6-foot-4, 320 pounds, Rutledge has a thick frame with some strength to contribute to the ground game. Rutledge earned an invitation to the Senior Bowl, and if he blocks well in the pass-rushing one-on-ones, he could be a riser.

1/3/25: Stephens has been an effective guard for the Hawkeyes the past few seasons. He has been a reliable starter at left guard with the ability to create some push in the ground game. Stephens could start out as a backup before growing into a potential starter.

1/3/25: Wright broke into the starting lineup for the Tigers. He is a big, powerful blocker at the point of attack who can generate movement. Jarquez Hunter had a good amount of success running behind Wright. Wright has upside and ability, but could use some development at the pro level.

1/3/25: King is a large guard with a powerful presence at the point of attack. He had a strong showing at Troy before transferring to the Tar Heels. King has been decent but unimpressive for the Tar Heels.

1/3/25: George started at right guard over the past few seasons. After a rough start in 2024, George blocked well for the Gators and showed some strength in the ground game. That trend continued in 2025. George needs development as a pass protector for the NFL. George started at right tackle for the Gators and had a mixed 2023 season. He performed well as a run blocker at times, but often gave up too much pass pressure in many games.

1/3/25: Nwaiwu played tackle and guard at North Texas in 2022 and 2023 before transferring to Oklahoma. With the Sooners, Nwaiwu had a strong debut, making the transition to the SEC. Nwaiwu’s run blocking is ahead of his pass protection. He played right tackle for Oklahoma.

1/3/25: Murphy started 22 games for USC over the past few seasons and was a reliable right tackle for the Trojans. In 2025, he was a solid guard for Auburn, and that is a better fit for him in the NFL. Murphy could be a valuable backup at guard and tackle, with the upside to grow into being a starter.

1/3/25: Campbell has been solid for the Longhorns thus far in 2025. In 2024, Campbell played well for the Longhorns against Michigan and their star-studded interior defensive line. He has been a solid and dependable guard for Texas in 2024. In 2023, Campbell became the starting right guard for Texas, and he had an impressive season. Campbell was a reliable contributor to opening holes for Jonathon Brooks.

1/3/25: Laloulu has blocked well for the Ducks this season and is a well-balanced blocker at the point of attack. To open the 2024 season, Laloulu was starting at guard for a few games before starting the final 12 at center. Laloulu could lack a little height, but he is a strong and thick blocker at the point of attack.

1/3/25: El-Hadi is starting at left guard for the Wolverines in 2025 after playing right guard in 2024. He has size and strength. Showing well in pass blocking could help him rise.

1/3/25: Parks was a solid starter for Clemson in 2021 and 2022, manning the right guard position. He was limited to only two games in 2023 because of injuries, but Parks rebounded in 2024 and had a quality season for the Tigers. Parks enters his senior year having already started 42 games with 2,810 career snaps. Parks could stand to get stronger for the NFL.

1/3/25: Roberts started at right guard for Alabama in 2024. Roberts has some talent with good size, but needs to get more consistent and play up to his ability. Roberts worked his way into a starting role during the course of the 2023 season. He played in 11 contests with eight starts. Roberts has good size and run-blocking potential. Roberts has been a rotational player in 2025.

1/3/25: Calhoun is a massive interior blocker that flashed some ability as a rotational backup in 2024. Calhoun has been a rotational player with Micah Morris and other young guards. It will be interesting to see how Calhoun handles his conditioning and stamina.
