(Last Updated: January 19, 2025)
1. Tyler Booker, Alabama
LG | 6’5″ | 325 lbs | 3rd Year
No one should argue that Tyler Booker looks the part of a day 1 starting NFL guard. He has an incredibly strong anchor and a well-proportioned frame with strength and mass throughout.
Booker won’t put up big time athletic measurables, but he has plenty of functional athleticism. He gets off the line fast, doesn’t show much lower body stiffness in the hips, knees, or ankles, and plays with great leverage and strength.
He excels as a pass blocker, but has great technique as a run blocker as well.
Tyler Booker 2024 Stats
13 games: 13 starts (12 at LG, 1 at LT), 0 sacks allowed, 3 hits allowed, 7 hurries allowed, 97.5% pass block success rate
2. Jonah Savaiinaea, Arizona
RT/RG | 6’5″ | 335 lbs | 3rd Year
Jonah Savaiinaea played exclusively tackle this past season at Arizona, but has the exceptionally broad frame and power than NFL teams covet in a guard.
Savaiinaea has powerful hands and a good initial burst out of his stance, and has proven to be very effective as a puller. He has had multiple reps where he’s singlehandedly blocking two defenders thanks to his thickness and powerful upper body.
There are some athletic limitations that are obvious when he’s on an island as a tackle, but won’t be nearly as big of an issue inside. The biggest room for growth will be effectively handling speed-to-power moves, where he’s been beaten multiple times by not adjusting his technique in time.
Jonah Savaiinaea 2024 Stats
11 games: 11 starts (6 at RT, 5 at LT), 4 sacks allowed, 2 hits allowed, 9 hurries allowed, 96.9% pass block success rate
3. Tate Ratledge, Georgia
RG | 6’6″ | 320 lbs | 5th Year
Tate Ratledge is a technically sound and physically dominant prospect who has been the heart and soul of the Georgia offensive line for multiple years.
He excels with low pad level, leverage, and notable play strength, providing a stout anchor against bull rushes. Ratledge plays with great awareness, effectively handling stunts and diagnosing plays. He has plenty of functional athleticism to unlock his hips and create holes in the run game.
Ratledge was playing through injuries through most of the season which contributed to a slight decline this season, and teams might question his versatility considering he’s only played right guard in his career.
Tate Ratledge 2024 Stats
11 games: 10 starts (all at RG), 1 sack allowed, 2 hits allowed, 4 hurries allowed, 97.7% pass block success rate
4. Donovan Jackson, Ohio State
LG/LT | 6’4″ | 320 lbs | 4th Year
Donovan Jackson is a highly experienced offensive lineman with the size, strength, and football IQ to maintain a long NFL career.
The former 5 star recruit has a well-proportioned frame with a strong upper body. He maintains a low pad level and has strong hands. After struggling with his anchor early in his career, Jackson has improved dramatically thanks to added strength and footwork.
Jackson shifted outside to left tackle for the second half of the season due to injuries, and he’s really opened some eyes. He’s performed admirably in the move, showcasing his foot speed and improving his positional value.

Coming soon.
5. Armand Membou, Missouri
RT/G | 6’3″ | 315 lbs | 3rd Year
Armand Membou exclusively played right tackle for Missouri, but will most likely swing inside at the next level.
Membou plays with a wide base, added on to his naturally thick frame. He excels as a power blocker, sustaining blocks for long periods of time and winning the line of scrimmage. Membou has plenty of athletic ability, with an initial burst and the ability to get to his spot on pulls.
Membou was incredibly productive in college, allowing 0 sacks this season. He is susceptible to some holding penalties as he has a tendency to expose his chest and wrap around defenders.
Armand Membou 2024 Stats
12 games: 12 starts (all at RT), 0 sacks allowed, 0 hits allowed, 9 hurries allowed, 97.8% pass block success rate

Traits That Make a G Prospect Great
There’s a lot more than goes in to scouting interior offensive linemen than most fans realize. Strength, flexibility in the hips/knees/ankles, and blocking technique are among some of the most important factors of scouting the top guard prospects.
Some of the factors we consider when scouting are included below.
Flexibility
Having flexibility in the hips, knees, and ankles is necessary to react to oncoming rushers and quickly recover. Being stiff or upright is a recipe for getting beaten consistently, so being smooth and bendy provides a massive advantage for all offensive linemen.
Quickness
Linemen rarely need to sprint 40 yards, but having quick feet is as important as any trait. While everyone thinks about linemen as mostly big, much of the play in the trenches is decided by footwork. If you don’t have the quickness to properly move your feet, you’re going to find yourself out of position.
Power
Generating power in the run game to open up holes, holding your base against massive nose tackles, and keeping your balance when passing off a block are just a few ways that power is important for a lineman. It isn’t all about bench reps, power is usually generated from the core and lower body.
Frame
Guard prospects are big. But not all 315 pounders carry their weight the same way. While an offensive tackle prospect requires length in his frame, and interior offensive lineman needs broad shoulders and thick legs to keep a powerful base and keep defenders in front of him.
Overall Opinion of the 2025 G Class
The guard class has seen a lot of movement over the last couple of months, and will likely see a lot more movement before the draft. The strength of interior offensive line groups often depends on how many tackles kick inside, and that’s the case once again this year with prospects like Jonah Savaiinaea, Armand Membou, and Marcus Mbow.
The top of the class seems pretty average, but the late round depth is pretty solid. There are more interior offensive linemen with expiring eligibility than ever before, and you can tell. There will be plenty of good guards available in undrafted free agency.
