Round 4 • Pick 3
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Broad, well-built snowplow of a guard with the traits and power to turn a crease into a full-fledged running lane. Teams looking to add physicality up front will covet Simpson, but keep in mind he was plenty effective with scoop blocks, pulls, second-level climbs and even screen blocking, which shows the big man can move. Tardiness coming out of his stance and issues changing direction in pass protection are concerns that may not be easily fixed and could lead to matchup-based inconsistencies. However, he plays with good technique and has the tools to become an early starter and a good NFL guard.

Round 3 • Pick 42
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Big, bruising body mover with serious knock-back power to clear the debris from the gaps in the run game. Phillips has flown under the radar, but his tape is filled with fits of strength at the point of attack. His wide frame includes a wide power zone that prevents his edges from becoming leaky. He fits into power, gap scheme and inside zone as a run blocker, but outside zone is asking too much. He has a lack of functional range in pass sets that might require more tight end help than play-callers would care to give. Interior protection duties should come naturally and he has early starting potential with an above-average ceiling for a power-driven offense.

Round 3 • Pick 5
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
The run-blocking tape shows a forklift dressed as a right guard with the power and leverage to move some of the best interior defenders in the conference. The pass-blocking tape shows a heavy-footed guard who lacks length and lateral quickness to hold up if asked to block on an island. Lewis needs to play for a team heavy into gap and inside-zone concepts. He can hold his own against bull rushers but will struggle to move and recover against moving pieces in pass protection. He's a one-position prospect who lacks height/length but he's a plus run blocker who should outperform his draft slotting.

Round 5 • Pick 4
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Barrel-chested grinder with the toughness and power to play brute ball in the trenches. Lemieux is well-known for his toughness and intelligence. He's an experienced, well-schooled guard. He's athletic enough to perform in a variety of run schemes, but does his best work with combo blocks and double teams. Against NFL interior athletes, he will find it tougher to keep blocks centered and sustained. He should be OK as a run blocker early on, but his issues in pass protection might not be quickly fixed and could push him into the "good backup, eventual starter" category.

Round 4 • Pick 29
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Backup-caliber guard with the football intelligence, technique and run-blocking ability for eventual starter consideration in the right circumstance. Dotson is a powerful man with experience blocking in zone, gap and power schemes. He's a little stiff-kneed with sluggish change of direction so slanting fronts and athletic pass rushers could create inconsistencies in his performance. What he can do well outweighs the concerns and he could hear his name called on Day 3.

Round 4 • Pick 23
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Clark has good arm length and played almost exclusively at left tackle, but his game is better-suited at guard. He has good upper-body power to shock and plays with a mauler's demeanor when battling and finishing. Lateral quickness is below average in the run game and his pad level needs to be corrected for a move inside. He's not a slick move-and-mirror pass protector, but length and redirect power are weapons to work with if he can get his footwork and punch-timing shored up. He had outstanding moments against Clemson but didn't sustain that level of play throughout the season. The flashes are there but he needs to play with better consistency to make a mark.

Round 6 • Pick 2
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Thick-boned guard prospect with heavy hands, booming upper body power and a limited amount of game reps due to a series of serious injuries. Muti plays a heavy, static brand of football that succeeds near his stance, but sees steeply diminishing returns when asked to venture from his home base. His hands and feet fail to cooperate, creating inconsistent balance and body control. He has adequate hands and feet for pass protection duties inside, but needs to upgrade his footwork. Muti has future starter potential for a downhill team, but his history of injuries could make buying in difficult on his draft slotting.

Round 4 • Pick 37
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Four-year starter who will get dinged for some athletic limitations, but possesses the body type, leadership and toughness necessary to play in the league. Bredeson is best-suited firing out in a power-based rushing attacking where his disadvantages in space can be mitigated. There are correctable elements in his game that should forge continued improvement, but there will be some bumpy roads against interior quickness. He should become an average starter.

Round 4 • Pick 15
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Scrappy, blue-collar guard who plays an assignment-oriented, dependable brand of football. Stenberg is lacking in both body composition and pure play strength and is much better at the first two phases of the block than the finishing phase. He's smart and aware in pass protection, with adequate recovery athleticism to battle edge-to-edge rushers. He should be a capable NFL backup who can step in and hold up if he's asked to step in and start.

Round 6 • Pick 1
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Durable four-year starter at tackle who might be asked to prove himself as an interior blocker on the next level. Adeniji understands and displays technique, but it tends to get sloppy when his footwork gets him behind in the rep. He was an imperfect fit in Kansas' move-oriented running game, but could compete for a roster spot in a man blocking scheme where he should be able to play with better control, consistency and push at the point of attack. His experience at tackle boosts his pass pro credentials if he's moved inside.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Athletic four-year starter whose versatility could give him an advantage when it comes time to earn a roster spot. He has starting experience at tackle and center, but might find his sweet spot as a zone-scheme guard with position flexibility. He plays with lateral quickness and plus fluidity in space. He's able to get to challenging angles on the go. He lacks length and is more tenacious than strong, which could impact his ability to stay connected to blocks. Good-Jones has the footwork to mirror athletic rushers, but needs to stay balanced and improve his use of hands in pass protection. Position versatility and athleticism could make him a quality NFL backup.

Round 6 • Pick 13
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Determined and smart, Runyan held his own as a Big Ten tackle despite a lack of desired physical and athletic traits. He's inconsistent taking control into initial engagements, but stays after it and recovers back into the second phase of the block. He plays with high hands that diminish power and control, but that should improve as he slides inside to guard. He has adequate athleticism and body control to fit into a variety of run schemes but may not excel in any. Runyan's protection experience at tackle improves his draft value as a later-round, backup-caliber guard.

Round 6 • Pick 3
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Powerful and wide, Onwenu's natural play strength is somewhat offset by his below-average athletic ability. With better hand placement and attention to footwork, he can take a step forward as a drive blocker with the ability to move bodies around, but he'll be a scheme-specific prospect who could struggle against quick, upfield players and sub-package rushers. He has backup guard ability and potential as a Day 3 pick.

Round 7 • Pick 36
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Short college tackle with good quickness and leverage. Will need to bump inside due to a lack of functional length. Anchrum does an excellent job of getting to landmarks laterally as a move blocker and has above-average body control to adjust and capture his second-level blocks. He has the tools to fire out and operate as a base blocker but could find himself controlled by two-gapping defensive tackles due to his short arms and average hand quickness. Despite his lack of desired size and length, he could be a nice, capable fit as a quality backup guard for a team looking to play in space.

Round 3 • Pick 11
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Guard/center prospect whose run-blocking and pass protection tape are polar opposites. He's not a natural bender and the hand placement is rough, making sustaining blocks a challenge. However, the narrow base as a drive blocker turns into a wide, balanced base in pass sets. He's a terrific processor of twists and blitzes who expedites his process and finds his work. If a team can improve the hands and body control they might have something, but he's more likely a backup option for teams targeting pass protection inside at guard or center.

Round 7 • Pick 39
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Decorated tackle who will be asked to slide inside and learn a new position. Hinton used his power and athleticism to overwhelm his level of competition, but his movements out of his stance can be a little wild and unfocused, which will get him in trouble against NFL competition. He needs to add mass and play with better hand placement and less forward lean. Hinton isn't NFL-ready, but his explosiveness, strength and quickness are appealing traits to work with as a developmental prospect who could find an early home on a practice squad.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Small-school offensive lineman with good athleticism, core strength and position flexibility. Murphy has starting experience at tackle, guard and center, but is a likely center/guard projection. His size and strength were good for his level of competition but may be an early challenge in the NFL. He's an average drive blocker, but might be quick enough to get to challenging angles as a move blocker. Murphy's pass protection is a strength, with the anchor and slide quickness to match up with a variety of rush styles. He should offer good backup depth with a chance to bump up the depth chart in the future.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Well-built tackle-to-guard prospect with very good core strength and displacement power in his upper body. The problem for Throckmorton is that for all his contact balance and diligence to play under control, his lower body stiffness and lack of functional quickness permeates his play in both the run and pass and will be much more pronounced on an NFL offensive line. The technique and quality of play is draft-worthy but physical limitations might make him no better than a replaceable backup.

Round 6 • Pick 30
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Burly and strong with the ability to play either guard position in a gap-scheme attack. He's productive on double teams and combo blocks. Stepaniak comes off the ball and into opponents with some pop when he's singled up and he's a nasty block finisher, but he may not have enough length for NFL-block sustain. His ability to recover in pass pro is limited by both his wide base and exaggerated slide steps out to the edge. Despite his bench-press strength, Stepaniak gives too much ground to power rushers who push him into the pocket. It's possible to correct some of his pass protection issues and his physicality in the run game helps his cause as a late-round guard with backup potential.

Round 5 • Pick 3
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Converted from tight end to tackle two years ago and will need to keep sliding inside as a zone-scheme blocker. His understanding of angles improved rapidly in-season, allowing his athleticism and agility to do their things as a move blocker. He sustains with grip strength and balance, but needs to be on the move and working away from stack-and-shed defenders. His short arms and substandard core strength got him bullied into the pocket by average MAC rushers and there is no guarantee that additional strength and technique work will fix it against pro rushers. He faces an uphill battle, but has developmental potential that could interest zone-scheme teams at either guard or center.

Round 4 • Pick 5
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Nasty guard who lives in scrap mode, looking for fights inside a relatively small phone booth where he's most comfortable. Kindley has the frame of a powerful guard, but doesn't bend well enough to generate leverage and push at the point of attack. He's a mauler with enough finesse to get to some reach and cut-off blocks, but faces scheme limitations. Slide quickness is limited and his tendency to lunge allows rushers to work around his edge earlier than teams like. The size and toughness are great, but Kindley needs to play with better control and technique in order to become an average NFL backup.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Gonzalez plays to his wide frame and impressive power, driving and mauling to the best of his ability. While he has athletic limitations, he should be fine as a run blocker provided he's paired with a team that doesn't ask him to play in space very often. He has average core strength and inconsistent hand quickness, which will get him jostled at the point of attack at times, but he can hang in the saddle and get the job done. His lunging and inconsistent anchor against the bull-rush might be correctable to an extent, but the athletic limitations will always be an issue when facing off against the athletic rushers in the league.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Hambright played tackle as a senior at Colorado, but will need to move inside due to his lack of functional length. He plays with a good combination of agility and play strength to fit with a zone scheme or pin-and-pull rushing attack as a guard who can get into space and land on the move. His stiff punch can discombobulate lesser college rushers, but an NFL offensive line coach will need to correct the oversetting and lunging in order for Hambright to hold up against pro competition. He has enough athleticism, power and twitch to earn a back-end roster spot.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Three-year starter with good size and thickness but extremely short arms for his size. Short-arm guards need to be quick and accurate with their hands. Molchon is inconsistent in both areas. He was frequently knocked off balance into contact against bigger, stronger defenders from Florida State, but played with much better control against conference opponents. He's a knowledgeable blocker who knows how to get from Point A to Point B, but lacks NFL athleticism or drive power. He's steady in pass protection with a nice feel for setting a sudden, shallow anchor when needed. Molchon lacks the traits and consistency of an NFL guard.

Tackle/guard prospect with plus physical traits but lacking in power, instincts and technique. Simmons has starting experience at both guard and tackle, but his body type and style of play feel much more like a tackle. His long arms can be effective in his pass protection and he's an adequate athlete who shouldn't have severe scheme limitations as a run blocker. His lack of core strength combined with elevated pad level creates deficiencies as a drive blocker and, at times, in pass protection. Simmons has developmental traits but may be looking at an early visit on a practice squad.

A latecomer to football, Eiselen became enamored with the sport after watching it for the first time in South Africa. His journey to this opportunity has seen him make consistent improvements with his technique and fundamentals in each season. His wide, powerful build is NFL-worthy, but he also carries below-average length and is marginal as an athlete. He gets into run blocks with consistent pop and is best-suited for a man-blocking scheme. Issues staying in front of athletic NFL pass rushers and recovering when beaten will be a lingering concern.

Richmond does a nice job of utilizing his strength and length at right tackle, but he might not have the functional lateral quickness to stick at tackle, so he might need to prove himself at guard. His core power and body control will suit him well inside, as will his relatively quick and accurate hands. His ability to make a team and stick around will likely depend on whether or not a move inside can hide some of his athletic flaws and limitations.

Big, powerful guard with one-dimensional skill set. Magee plays the role of bulldozer with lower-body push and a nasty demeanor to get bodies moved around at the point of attack. He will be limited by scheme, as he lacks athleticism and body control to play in space successfully. He did an admirable job in pass protection with his Joe Moore Award-winning offensive line called on for a high number of five-man protections. However, he lacks a functional mirror and technique to stay in front of NFL rushers at the level required of him as a pro guard.

Prospect with a tackle's body type but the arm length of a guard. Phillips is a three-year starter with experience at both guard spots. He's below-average athletically but has a good understanding of technique and plays with inside hands to sustain blocks longer. Tall pad level and poor contact balance will make blocking NFL defenders in the run game very challenging. He has a decent anchor and recognizes twists up front but lacks the desired mirror and reactive foot quickness in pass protection. He's a likely undrafted free agent with low-end backup as his ceiling.

Likely tackle-to-guard position switch due to his lack of length and consistency in pass protection. Brandel is a durable blocker who lacks guard mass, but he works on the nuances of his position, which helps his cause. He understands angles and techniques but is an average athlete with below-average core power and play strength. He gives too much ground to bull-rushers, which is a concern no matter which position he plays up front. He doesn't figure to be a plus run blocker in any scheme. A spot on a practice squad should be his goal for 2020.

Guard-only prospect lacking desired NFL size and consistency. Iwuagwu's run blocking isn't defined by plus power or athleticism. He doesn't play with consistent body control or footwork and there aren't enough reps where he is in command and in control. His arm length and punch stiffness are both good, but he lacks instincts to recognize and respond to blitzing/twisting fronts in a timely manner. He might get a shot in camp, but he lacks the functional strength and footwork to withstand the size and force of NFL interior defenders.
