*****
 1. Evan Neal, Alabama Â
The most athletic offensive tackle since Orlando Pace? He could be.
*****
2. Rasheed Walker, Penn State
I love Walker a bit more than others. He's a complete lineman who can also get downfield.
*****
3. Tyler Linderbaum, Iowa Â
The best center in the country will be a first-round NFL Draft pick.
4. Jaxson Kirkland, Washington
He doesn’t get a ton of press because he’s out West, but he has the perfect frame and athleticism for the NFL.
*****
5. Darian Kinnard, Kentucky Â
He could be a guard or a tackle at the next level, and he is a great leader.
*****
6. Ikem Ekwonu, NC State
I love his drive-blocking ability in the run game.
*****
7. Kenyon Green, Texas A&MÂ Â
He’s a guard at the NFL level - but a very good one.
*****
8. Zion Nelson, Miami Â
He’s still raw, but you can’t argue with his measurables. He’s an athlete.
*****
9. Charles Cross, Mississippi State Â
He’s just starting to come into his own, and the NFL is noticing.
*****
10. Zion Johnson, Boston College Â
He’s one of three BC offensive linemen who could be second- or third-round candidates.
