There’s a chance that Jonah Williams falls a little bit before the draft because he isn’t an elite athlete, nor does he have great length. Regardless, Jonah Williams has good foot speed, balance, strength, and technique. He has been a starting offensive tackle for the Tide ever since his true freshman season, and he should be plenty successful in the NFL. Some people think he might change positions at the next level, but I don’t think that would be necessary. He could be great as a pass-blocking guard, but I think he would be utilized best on the outside instead of facing DTs all game.

Andre Dillard is an athletic left tackle who blocked for the best passing offense in football. His pass blocking ability might be the best in the class, and he has extremely quick feet which make him perfect for the left tackle position. Dillard has enough size for the position and has the weight to be decent as a run blocker, but he’s a little behind other prospects in run blocking right now. Regardless, his incredible pass blocking ability, knack for avoiding penalties, intelligence, and athleticism make him a first round talent.

Greg Little was a highly touted recruit who started at left tackle from day 1 for Ole Miss. While he was successful for the Rebels, he never reached his true level of dominance that some expected. Still, he was good enough to garner SEC 1st team honors and All-American recognition. Little has exceptional length and the strength to exceed as a run blocker. He isn’t as athletic as once thought, but still has enough foot speed to block on either side of the line. He quietly improved throughout his short career, and should be good enough to start as a rookie at either tackle position.

A lot of people consider Jawaan Taylor the best offensive tackle in the class, and there’s a good chance he’ll be the first lineman to have his name called on April 25th. I personally am not on the hype train. While Taylor is a better run blocker than most high-end tackle prospects, he doesn’t always have proper technique. He does have a huge wingspan and enough size for the position, however. He can play undisciplined at times having gotten 9 flags this past year, and the biggest worry is weight control. He weighed 380 pounds in high school, and fluctuated between 310-335 throughout college. Inability to regulate weight and propensity for penalties are big red flags.

Dalton Risner lacks elite length or athleticism, but he was as dominant as any lineman in major college football. He has great technique and rarely ever makes a mistake. While he might have to move in to guard or center due to his short reach, he has enough lateral speed to play outside, and performed so well in college that I think he deserves the benefit of the doubt to keep him outside for now. Risner is an above average run blocker, rarely gets penalized, and rarely ever allows a pressure.

This seems like a pretty decent class for offensive tackles, as there are some big names as well as great depth. While there isn’t a true superstar at the top, a lot of guys were highly successful in college. Many people love Jawaan Taylor of Florida, although he has several red flags that concern me. Jonah Williams has been an All-American caliber player ever since his true freshman year at Alabama, and Greg Little is a great athlete who has refined his form pretty well. There are multiple small school players making names for themselves and could surprise people by being drafted high. Day 3 of the NFL Draft will see a lot of offensive tackles taken.
