QB | RB | WR | TE | OT | OG | C | DE | DT | LB | DB

Matt Kalil, USC
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 295
40 time: 5.00
Matt Kalil is the brother of Carolina Panther Ryan Kalil and is also the top rated OT prospect in the draft. He is big, talented and experienced. He had a terrific season last year for USC and has emerged as the top OT prospect in his class. He has great footwork, quickness and strength. He is strong at run and pass blocking. Kalil is a very polished OT prospect that will be a top pick this April.

Jonathan Martian, Stanford
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 305
40 time: 5.18
Martian is one of my favorite prospects in this draft. He has the size and the talent to be a starter in the NFL. He excels at pass blocking and is also very strong in the running game. Martian is also a very polished prospect who will be yet another top pick this April.

D.J. Fluker, Alabama
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 340
40 time: 5.20
Fluker is an elite prospect that will be on the rise if he repeats another year like he had last year. He is big and surprising athletic for his size. My main problem I have with Fluker is just how big he is; he is going to have to watch his weight throughout his whole career. There is no denying his talent but his weight will be a problem.

Bobby Massie, Ole Miss
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 312
40 time: 5.17
Massie is a strong OT who packs a vicious initial punch. He uses his hands very well and has great footwork. Massie is prospect who has a good amount of experience and talent. He has a terrific amount of potential.

Mike Adams, Ohio St.
Ht: 6-8 Wt: 305
40 time: 5.12
Adams is a monstrous OT prospect who is very talent in both pass and run blocking but unfortunately has some off the field issues. The whole Ohio St. thing won't do him any favors either.

Levy Adcock, Oklahoma St.
Ht: 6-5 Wt: 318
40 time: 5.14
Adcock really had an amazing season last year. He is a possible first round prospect who needs to repeat another strong season.

Riley Reiff, Iowa
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 300
40 time: 4.98
Reiff was selected to the All-Big East second team last season. He is a big tackle who stands with a good strong base and is very solid in both run and pass blocking. I love his work ethic.

Ricky Wagner, Wisconsin
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 320
40 time: 5.20
Wagner is an offensive tackle who has terrific size and talent. He has very good footwork and is a true force in the ground game. I have high expectations for him this year.

Tanner Hawkinson, Kansas
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 295
40 time: 4.93
Hawkinson is a former TE, so he is very athletic for a guy as big as him. He has great footwork and quickness. I am a big fan of Hawkinson; he is young and still has a ton of room for improvement.

Andrew Datko, Florida St.
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 312
40 time: 5.09
Datko is another extremely athletic tackle; which is rare for guys his size. He's got a ton of potential but unfortunately is coming off a shoulder injury. He needs to prove he is healthy this year.

Elvis Fisher, Missouri
Ht: 6-5 Wt: 300
40 time: 5.14
Fisher has all the potential in the world; he's got the size and the talent. He is coming off shoulder surgery though, so it will be interesting seeing how he does this season.

Matt Reynolds, BYU
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 325
40 time: 5.20
Reynolds is incredibly talented and has NFL size. However, the main drawback here is Reynolds will be 25 this year.

Nate Potter, Boise St.
Ht: 6-8 Wt: 305
40 time: 5.05
Potter is a high touted OT who really struggled last season. He will have to move to OG in the NFL though if he doesn't improve a lot this season.

Mitchell Schwartz, California
Ht: 6-5 Wt: 312
40 time: 5.17
Schwartz is a OT who's got the NFL size and talent. His biggest strength that stands out to me is his experience and his durability (he's a 3 year starter).

Trevor Olsen, Northern Illinois
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 306
40 time: 5.20
Another 3 year starter; Olsen is a bigger lineman who can play multiple positions along the offensive front.

Mike Ryan, Connecticut
Ht: 6-5 Wt: 330
40 time: 5.30
Ryan was a All-Big East first teamer last season. Ryan is a strong and tough tackle who's biggest strength is run blocking.

Blake DeChristopher, Virginia Tech
Ht: 6-5 Wt: 320
40 time: 5.14
DeChristopher has good size, but his gametape isn't anything special. He has room for improvement.

Matt McCants, UAB
Ht: 6-7 Wt: 295
40 time: 5.06
McCants was an All-Conference USA first teamer last year. He's got the NFL size and talent.

Bradley Sowell, Ole Miss
Ht: 6-7 Wt: 315
40 time: 5.25

Josh Oglesby, Wisconsin
Ht: 6-7 Wt: 331

Ht: 6-4 Wt: 305

Ht: 6-7 Wt: 330
40 time: 5.37
A JUCO transfer.

Alex Hoffman, Cincinnati
Ht: 6-6 Wt: 296
40 time: 5.15
Two seasons ago he was All Big East second tea, but during last season he suffered a knee injury. He needs to rebound this year.
