1. Olaivavega Ioane, Penn State

LG | 6’4″ | 320 lbs | 4th Year

Olaivavega Ioane Scouting Report

Vega Ioane is a massive human being who would always catch my eye when I was trying to evaluate Drew Allar or the tandem of running backs at Penn State.

Ioane absolutely looks the part, with a thick, dense build and effectively having tree trunks for legs. His frame isn’t deceiving, as he displays probably the best pure power in the class. Vega is an unmovable object against bull rushes, and creates dramatic push to open up holes in the run game. His strength also shows in his hands, effectively latching on to his targets and keeping the in front of his frame. 

The athletic traits are better than you’d expect for someone of his size, but he isn’t exceptionally fluid. His feet can get a bit heavy, and an impatient running back could easily get out in front of him when climbing to the second level.

Olaivavega Ioane 2025 Stats

11 games, 11 starts at Left Guard: 614 snaps, 0 sacks, 0 hits, 4 hurries, 4 total pressures, 98.7% pass block win rate, 1 penalty

2. Emmanuel Pregnon, Oregon

LG | 6’4″ | 314 lbs | 6th Year

Emmanuel Pregnon Scouting Report

Emmanuel Pregnon is a big, aggressive interior offensive lineman who has been on the NFL’s radar since his dominant season for Wyoming in 2022. After a 2 year stint at USC, Pregnon transferred to Oregon this past season where he didn’t miss a beat.

Pregnon has an NFL-ready frame with full body strength, long arms, and a thick chest. He has a powerful grip and jarring hand usage to disrupt rushers. His anchor is consistent against bull rushers, showing plenty of power to hold up against the biggest NFL defensive lineman. In pass protection he shows good timing with his hands to consistently establish first contact, and rarely whiffs or dips his head into contact. He has good overall flexibility and knee bend for his size.

While he has decent overall athleticism, his redirection can be a bit choppy and he doesn’t offer any versatility to kick outside or to center, which can lower his overall value to teams.

Emmanuel Pregnon 2025 Stats

15 games, 15 starts at Left Guard: 910 snaps, 1 sack, 2 hits, 2 hurries, 5 total pressures, 98.9% pass block win rate, 1 penalty

3. Chase Bisontis, Texas A&M

LG | 6’5″ | 315 lbs | 3rd Year

Chase Bisontis Scouting Report

Chase Bisontis was the highest rated interior offensive line recruit in his high school class, and it isn’t hard to see why. After starting games at both tackle and guard as a true freshman in 2023, Bisontis has continued to develop into one of the best guards in the nation throughout his time at Texas A&M.

While still raw with some refinement needed in his technique and recognition, Bisontis has elite short area quickness combined with plenty of size (6’5” 315 lbs). He’s proven very effective at getting to the second level and blocking out in space, but also shows enough balance and power to hold his own against a bull rush.

He’s improved his hand usage throughout his 3 years as a starter, and has the raw athletic traits to continue to develop at the next level. If he’s able to add a bit more mass, he has a chance to become an exceptional all-around lineman.

Chase Bisontis 2025 Stats

13 games, 12 starts at Left Guard: 795 snaps, 1 sack, 3 hits, 8 hurries, 12 total pressures, 97.3% pass block win rate, 8 penalties

4. Keylan Rutledge, Georgia Tech

RG | 6’4″ | 310 lbs | 4th Year

Keylan Rutledge Scouting Report

Keylan Rutledge has the size and toughness that all offensive line coaches would love to have in their OL room. At 6’4” 330 pounds he has prototypical size, with a hardnose style of play that involves playing through the echo of the whistle and constantly trying to sit defenders down.

Rutledge was an All-American this past season and was a crucial part of Georgia Tech’s historic start to the year, showing out as a run blocker and in pass protection. He has quick hips for someone of his size, really long arms, and tends to get better as the game goes on. He doesn’t always initiate first contact which was very apparent early in the Georgia game, but he doesn’t panic and trusts his technique to recover on plays when needed.

His footwork is improving since his time at Middle Tennessee, but there’s still room to go. Leverage can be an issue against stronger players, and he’s a bit upright in his standard pass blocking reps.

Keylan Rutledge 2025 Stats

13 games, 13 starts at Right Guard: 872 snaps, 0 sacks, 2 hits, 4 hurries, 6 total pressures, 98.2% pass block win rate, 5 penalties

5. Jalen Farmer, Kentucky

RG | 6’5″ | 312 lbs | 4th Year

Jalen Farmer Scouting Report

Jalen Farmer is a big, powerful guard who looks the part of an NFL offensive lineman. After 2 years starting for Kentucky, Farmer went to the Senior Bowl where he was one of the top offensive line performers in practices.

Standing 6’5″ 315 pounds with long arms and a broad chest, Farmer has a wide base that’s very difficult to get around in pass pro. He’s an easy mover who excels as a puller and has solid lower body flexibility for his size, and he is quick to get out of his stance. He plays very strong including some heavy hands to knock defenders off course.

Farmer needs to improve his ability to recover when initially beat, as he often seems to play without a plan. He also has a tendency to lean into contact and can be beaten with swim moves.

Jalen Farmer 2025 Stats

12 games, 12 starts at Right Guard: 818 snaps, 3 sacks, 0 hits, 11 hurries, 14 total pressures, 96.9% pass block win rate, 1 penalty

6. Caden Barnett, Wyoming

RG | 6’4″ | 316 lbs | 5th Year

Caden Barnett Scouting Report

Caden Barnett is one of the biggest sleepers in the entire draft, and has a legitimate chance to be the first non-combine player selected in the 2026 draft.

Barnett looks the part, measuring 6’4″ 315 pounds with a thick frame and powerful upper body. He is a vocal leader and team captain who has spent time at both guard and tackle, while playing with a consistently nasty demeanor. Barnett is arguably the best run blocking guard in the draft, putting on a clinic on pulls where he can show off his plus-athletic ability and coordination to square up hits on the move. He always finishes his blocks and plays through the whistle, and anchors well against power.

He can get overaggressive at times which has caused him to get off balance and commit a fair number of penalties throughout his career, and could still stand to improve his hand placement and awareness in pass protection. 

Caden Barnett 2025 Stats

12 games, 12 starts at Right Guard: 792 snaps, 1 sack, 6 hits, 11 hurries, 14 total pressures, 95.9% pass block win rate, 4 penalties

7. Billy Schrauth, Notre Dame

LG/RG | 6’5″ | 310 lbs | 4th Year

Billy Schrauth Scouting Report​

Billy Schrauth is a big, consistent, and surprising nimble combo guard who was off to a hot start for Notre Dame in 2025 before an injury ended his season.

Schrauth became a starter in 2024 and looked solid, but took a nice step forward this past season, especially as a run blocker. In the first half of the season it felt like Schrauth was making a key block on every highlight run from Jeremiyah Love. He gets out of stance quickly and shows good ankle flexion along with reasonable quick hips to redirect. Schrauth has above average strength in the run game along with prototypical size (6’4″ 310) and good length for an interior lineman.

Hand usage has been an occasional issue for Schrauth, as he can get caught with his hands down and allow easy access into his chest to knock him off balance. He’ll also need to work on staying lower in pass protection, where he doesn’t always show proper leverage. 

Billy Schrauth 2025 Stats

7 games, 7 starts at Left Guard: 436 snaps, 0 sacks, 0 hits, 2 hurries, 2 total pressures, 99.1% pass block win rate, 1 penalty

8. Beau Stephens, Iowa

RG | 6’6″ | 315 lbs | 5th Year

Beau Stephens Scouting Report

Beau Stephens is one of the most experienced true guards in the 2026 NFL Draft, originally taking over a starter for Iowa in 2022. He plays exactly how you’d expect a long time Iowa lineman to play.

Stephens has a nasty demeanor who loves to play through the echo of the whistle. His film is full of pancake blocks, especially when climbing to the second level on run plays. Stephens plays with a very strong base and maintains good balance. After missing most of 2023 with an injury, he returned with significantly improved hand placement and overall consistency.

Stephens isn’t the most athletic, but he moves better than the numbers indicate and is able to effectively execute combination blocks or swing out for a screen, although his overall athletic traits won’t jump off the page. He also doesn’t have exceptional length, and that combination will make recovery more difficult at the next level.

Beau Stephens 2025 Stats

13 games, 13 starts at Left Guard: 682 snaps, 0 sacks, 0 hits, 4 hurries, 4 total pressures, 98.7% pass block win rate, 1 penalty

9. Keagen Trost, Missouri

RT/LT | 6’5″ | 311 lbs | 7th Year

Keagen Trost Scouting Report

Keagen Trost is an old o-line prospect who rapidly ascended into one of the best offensive linemen in the country. He started his career at Morgan State in 2019 before making a name for himself at Indiana State, spending a year at Wake Forest, then finally closing his career as PFF’s highest graded offensive lineman in the nation as a Missouri Tiger this past season.

Trost played both tackle positions in college, but his subpar lateral quickness and subpar size will kick him inside at the next level. Trost has the frame and big time power of a starting NFL guard, with a strong punch that knocked a ton of linebackers to the ground this year when climbing to the second level. He has a solid burst off the line of scrimmage, with good hand placement and a consistent anchor.

The minimal side-to-side quickness can show up if Trost is late to acknowledge a stunt and makes it harder for him to recover. His age and early career injuries will also be heavily scrutinized, as he’ll be 25 by the time of the draft.

Keagen Trost 2025 Stats

13 games, 13 starts at Left Guard: 891 snaps, 1 sack, 2 hits, 4 hurries, 7 total pressures, 98.1% pass block win rate, 4 penalties

10. Anez Cooper, Miami (FL)

RG | 6’6″ | 334 lbs | 4th Year

Anez Cooper Scouting Report

Anez Cooper is a massive right guard prospect who started early as a true freshman, displaying playable athletic ability combined with plus size and power.

Cooper has a very wide frame that is tailor-made to be an NFL guard. He has a massive wingspan that allows him to play with great range and establish first contact consistently. He has solid feet and strong hands to keep defenders in front of him in pass pro, and plays with a ton of physicality.

His upright stance and occasional lapses in recognition an lead to some immediate losses, which in turn lead to an abundance of penalties. Cooper also isn’t a plus athlete, leading to limitations as a move blocker.

Anez Cooper 2025 Stats

16 games, 15 starts at Right Guard: 1021 snaps, 1 sack, 2 hits, 9 hurries, 12 total pressures, 97.8% pass block win rate, 8 penalties

MORE NFL DRAFT RANKINGS

Traits That Make a Guard 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.

2026 G Draft Prospects FAQs

Who is the best G in the 2026 NFL Draft?

The best G in the 2026 NFL Draft is Olaivavega Ioane from Penn State. The barrel-chested guard has an elite combination of size and quick feet. After flashing elite play in 2024, he put it all together this past year, allowing 0 QB hits all season.

How good is the guard draft class in 2026?

The 2026 guard draft class is looking fairly average, but there’s a lot of time for that to change. The draft is strong in the 3rd-4th round, but thins out pretty quickly after that, while also lacking a true superstar at the top.
