[manxman2601]

Feldman hasn't released his freaks list for this year yet has he?

 

[mayoclinic]

It's due out any day. Last year's was released on August 7.

No. 30: Desmeal Leigh, Youngstown State, OL​

NFL Draft fans, learn this name now. A former lacrosse and basketball standout in high school, Leigh has started the last 38 games at left tackle. Last year, he was a second-team All-Missouri Valley Conference pick. He’s turned down a lot of money to stay at Youngstown. At 6-6 1/2, 329 pounds, Leigh has 36-inch arms and a 7-1 wingspan. This offseason, he back-squatted 505 pounds, front squatted 390, bench pressed 385 and was clocked at 16.7 MPH in practice with pads on. Last year, he ran a 4.9 40. His athleticism from his hoops and lax background shows up on the field, maybe even more so than his testing numbers, in his uncanny ability to recover from tricky situations, which is a gift for an O-lineman.

"Lax background" !!!

"Lax background" !!!

I think it means he had a job at the LA airport.

I think it means he had a job at the LA airport.

Hope it doesn't mean he's lazy.

Renner's 2027 NFL Draft scouting series: Ranking the top 10 offensive tackles

These 10 offensive tackles are the ones to watch in college football for those interested in the 2027 NFL Draft.

Nice list, shows some thought and originality.

Ian Moore and Elijah Paige two true tackles who could be fast risers. Along with Niki Prongos, the most interesting pure tackles not named Goosby or Seaton.

I like Jacarrius Peak at guard, personally. Love his movement skills.

USC football opposing player scouting report - Ian Moore, Ohio State

Ian Moore could be the hinge-point player for the Ohio State offensive line this year. USC's defensive line has to make him look bad

Fingers crossed it's not serious.

Crisis averted.

Texas has enviable OL versatility if Goosby misses time.

Can move Melvin Siani to LT, Brandon Baker to RT.

Don't care. On my "not a binky" list now.

Just watching the NFLSE OT breakdown.

Connor Rogers has Jordan Seaton as his 6th best (dodgy run blocking) but interestingly has PJ Williams as his 2nd best.
