1. Alabama image Kayden Proctor*, OT, Alabama
Height: 6-7. Weight: 360.
Projected 40 Time: 5.10.
Projected Round (2025): 1-2.

6/17/25: Overall, Proctor played well in 2023 as a freshman. Except for struggling against Michigan in the college football playoff, Proctor was generally reliable to protect Jalen Milroe. He followed up his debut with a solid second season as a starter. Proctor (6-7, 360) is a massive blocker who could also be a right tackle candidate in the NFL. Sources from Alabama have said that Proctor has make-up and character concerns.



2. Georgia image Earnest Greene III, OT, Georgia
Height: 6-4. Weight: 320.
Projected 40 Time: 5.20.
Projected Round (2025): 1-2.

6/17/25: Greene had a mixed outing against Clemson in the season opener, but played well after that, including a respectable outing against Alabama. Greene could stay at tackle, and also get consideration to move inside to guard for the NFL. Greene started at left tackle for Georgia in 2023 and played well. There are some projections of him moving to right tackle for 2025. With his build, he fits with some other Bulldogs left tackles who have not been typical edge protectors. While Greene lacks some height and length, he makes up for it with smooth athleticism and strength.



3. Florida image Austin Barber, OT, Florida
Height: 6-6. Weight: 315.
Projected 40 Time: 5.10.
Projected Round (2025): 1-2.

6/17/25: Barber had some growing pains but also showed potential in 2023. In 2024 he got better as the season progressed and turned into a solid blocker to protect D.J. Lagway. Barber could be a riser in 2025.



4. Clemson image Blake Miller, OT, Clemson
Height: 6-6. Weight: 310.
Projected 40 Time: 5.35.
Projected Round (2026): 1-2.

6/16/25: Miller started at right tackle. He had a decent showing against Georgia. Miller is a good athlete with quickness and agility on the edge. Miller could stand to get stronger and play with more physicality. Miller broke into the starting lineup at right tackle as a freshman in 2022, so he will enter the NFL with a lot of experience. In an offensive scheme that likes to be a predominantly zone blocker team.



5. Auburn image Xavier Chaplin, OT, Auburn
Height: 6-7. Weight: 338.
Projected 40 Time: 5.35.
Projected Round (2026): 1-2.

6/16/25: With Virginia Tech, Chaplin was one of the top left tackles in the ACC in 2024. He improved as a blocker after a solid debut season as a starter in 2023 for the Hokies. Chaplin has excellent size with impressive movement skills for such a big blocker. He has the potential to be a top-50 pick next April with a strong season in the SEC.



6. Penn State image Drew Shelton, OT/G, Penn State
Height: 6-5. Weight: 308.
Projected 40 Time: 5.40.
Projected Round (2024): 1-2.

2/7/25: Shelton saw some action as a freshman, filling in for injured left tackle Olu Fashanu, and then was a rotational contributor who also logged time at guard and center. After Fashanu moved on to the NFL, Shelton took over at left tackle for the Nittany Lions in 2024. Shelton had a strong close to the 2024 season and put together some impressive tapes to end the season. Shelton has athletic ability and is technically sound with impressive patience. There could be some debate about whether he should be a guard or tackle in the NFL.



7. Nebraska image Elijah Prichett*, OT, Nebraska
Height: 6-6. Weight: 312.
Projected 40 Time: 5.40.
Projected Round (2025): 1-3.


<> 6/17/25: At Alabama, Pritchett was a decent run blocker at the point of attack with developing pass protection skills. Pritchett was the Crimson Tide’s starting right tackle and improved as he gained experience. He transferred to Nebraska for the 2025 season. Pritchett has talent, but did not play up to his ability at Alabama, and he should have been more dominant than he was. Pritchett has maturity issues, and that could be a factor in his play. Perhaps he will mature and develop at Nebraska.



8. Arkansas image Fernando Carmona Jr., OT, Arkansas
Height: 6-5. Weight: 322.
Projected 40 Time: 520.
Projected Round (2025): 1-3.

6/17/25: Carmona played well for Arkansas in 2024 showing ability as a run blocker and pass protector at left tackle. He is a solid player with upside to develop for NFL coaches. He was very good against Oklahoma State in Week 2. Carmona played left tackle at San Jose State in 2023 and 2022.



9. Utah image Spencer Fano*, OT, Utah
Height: 6-5. Weight: 304.
Projected 40 Time: 5.35.
Projected Round (2025): 1-3.

6/17/25: Fano has talent and has played well at tackle for the Utes. He has been a versatile tackle with 11 starts at left tackle and 13 at right tackle heading into the 2025 season. For the most part, Fano played on the left side in 2023 and on the right side in 2024. He could be a swing tackle who develops into a starter. Fano could stand to get stronger for the NFL.



10. Wake Forest image Fa’alili Fa’amoe, OT, Wake Forest
Height: 6-5. Weight: 314.
Projected 40 Time: 5.25.
Projected Round (2025): 1-3.

6/17/25: Fa’amoe probably would have been a second-day pick had he decided to enter the 2025 NFL Draft. Fa’amoe produced a couple of good seasons at right tackle for Washington State. Fa’amoe could have gone to the Senior Bowl, but instead transferred to Wake Forest for the 2025 season. Fa’amoe has a good skill set with the upside to be a pro starter.



11. Illinois image J.C. Davis, OT, Illinois
Height: 6-5. Weight: 320.
Projected 40 Time: 5.28.
Projected Round (2026): 2-3.

2/7/25: Davis started out his college career at Contra Costa College before playing two seasons at New Mexico. Davis transferred to the Illini for the 2024 season and had an impressive debut taking on the Big 10. Davis has good, versatile size for the NFL. If Davis does well at the Senior Bowl and in workouts, he has the potential to rise.



12. Notre Dame image Aamil Wagner*, OT, Notre Dame
Height: 6-6. Weight: 293.
Projected 40 Time: 5.25.
Projected Round (2025): 2-4.

6/17/25: Wagner had an impressive 2024 redshirt sophomore season as the starting right tackle for the Fighting Irish. He has good height and length, as an edge blocker, but could stand to add some weight and strength to his frame for the NFL. Wagner was only in his first season as a starter, so he has the upside to rise as he gains experience and develops physically.



13. Georgia image Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia
Height: 6-7. Weight: 314.
Projected 40 Time: 5.40.
Projected Round (2025): 2-4.

6/17/25: Freeling broke into the lineup during his freshman season and played well for the Bulldogs. He is projected to be a starter at left or right tackle for 2025. It will be interesting to see which side he is placed on.



14. Alabama image Wilkin Fromby**, OT, Alabama
Height: 6-7. Weight: 324.
Projected 40 Time: 5.40.
Projected Round (2025): 3-5.

6/17/25: With Elijah Pritchett transferring to Nebraska, Fromby is projected to take over as the starting right tackle for Alabama in 2025. Fromby was a rotational backup in 2024 but had a few starts. Fromby has excellent size and the talent to be a riser.



15. Michigan image Evan Link*, OT, Michigan
Height: 6-6. Weight: 328.
Projected 40 Time: 5.30.
Projected Round (2025): 3-5.

6/17/25: After redshirting in 2023, Link became the starting right tackle for the Wolverines in 2024. Link has good size at the point of attack and some strength as a run blocker. He has the potential to improve as he gains experience. In 2025, Link could be moving to left tackle for Michigan.



16. Texas A&M image Trey Zuhn III, OT, Texas A&M
Height: 6-7. Weight: 315.
Projected 40 Time: 5.30.
Projected Round (2026): 4-6.

6/17/25: Zuhn did not impress against Notre Dame in the season opener. He was better in some other games, but he has issues in pass protection and needs development for the NFL. Zuhn is a big lineman, but he can be inconsistent with his technique and gets in trouble when he plays high. He could improve as he gains experience. Zuhn has a lot of experience as a starting left tackle for the Aggies, but he needs to get more consistent.



17. Texas A&M image Dametrious Crownover, OT, Texas A&M
Height: 6-7. Weight: 340.
Projected 40 Time: 5.30.
Projected Round (2025): 5-7.

6/17/25: Crownover is the starting right tackle for the Aggies. He is a big body that could stand to improve his conditioning for the NFL, and will need to show an ability to handle speed rushers. Crownover broke into the starting lineup as a junior, so he could be improved as a senior after gaining a year of starting experience.



18. Michigan State image Stanton Ramil*, OT, Michigan State
Height: 6-7. Weight: 305.
Projected 40 Time: 5.40.
Projected Round (2025): 5-7.

6/17/25: Ramil started eight games as a redshirt freshman at left tackle for the Spartans and had a quality debut. He has the potential to rise as he develops and gains more experience.



19. Michigan State image Conner Moore*, OT, Michigan State
Height: 6-5. Weight: 309.
Projected 40 Time: 5.40.
Projected Round (2025): 6-FA.

6/17/25: Moore was a standout at Montana State starting at left tackle in 2023 and 2024. Michigan State snatched up Moore from the transfer portal and it will be interesting to see how Moore competes against better competition.
