DRAFT TRACKER 2025

Traits-based developmental tackle with only one full season as a college starter. Brown is high-cut but is unusually quick laterally and athletic in space for a player who plays so upright. He gets to zone-blocking landmarks and is forceful with move contact, but his pad level limits his consistency as a man-to-man blocker. His protection improved rapidly in-season, but he still needs to develop an inside-out approach with pass sets and learn to recognize rush games more quickly. The bad looks really bad but the good can look really good. The ceiling and floor are both moving upward and Brown has early swing tackle value with a chance to develop into an NFL starter.

Durable four-year starter with Wisconsin football racing through his blood. He’s a better run blocker than pass protector on tape, with the quickness and athleticism to find his landmarks on move blocks. He operates with good strain and technique on base and drive blocks but won’t create much push. Nelson’s pass sets can feel frantic with disheveled footwork, inconsistent body control and an anchor that could struggle to withstand NFL speed-to-power. He needs to get stronger, but his instincts and awareness in protection could pair with his range as a move blocker for consideration by zone-heavy teams.

Tackle/guard prospect with steady game tape. Wedig possesses an NFL frame but will need to add more upper-body power and core strength. He’s an intelligent player with consistent recognition of where to be and what to do. He centers up run blocks and stays connected but is better as a move blocker than he is when asked to drive someone off the ball. Wedig’s pass protection is solid when he’s in position but his lack of length and average slide quickness could have teams pushing him inside to guard, where he will need to prove he’s strong enough to take on NFL defensive tackles.
