5 Offensive Tackle Prospects The Eagles Could Target in the First Round of the 2026 NFL Draft

Monroe Freeling OT Georgia - Junior

6’7 315lbs - 21yo

• Played some RT in 2024, limited snaps

• Became starter for the final 5 games of the season in 2024 at LT, taking the job from an injured Earnest Green and kept his job throughout the 2025 season earning 2nd team all-SEC honours

Strengths

• Has grown into a solid pass protector and has great size/frame for the position.

• I like his footwork, seems to shift his weight really well and has very good agility. 

• Overall pass blocking grade of 85.6 (PFF) - allowed only 9 pressures in 2025 (3 sacks)

• Comes from a premier college programme.Ordinary players don’t get to start LT for UGA.

• Combine update: Elite measurables. 

  • 4.93 Forty 

  • 10 ¾ hands / 34 ¾ arms

Limitations

• Probably needs to add some weight, he has an ideal frame and room for it, especially holding up at NFL level and dropping anchor in pass pro.

• Overall run blocking grade 61.7 - room for improvement in this avenue

• Only one full season under his belt, inexperienced.

Loch Lomond Comp: Loch Lomond 10 - A solid, foundational piece

Kadyn Proctor OT Alabama - Junior

6’7 360lbs - 21yo 

• Started all 13 games at LT for Alabama as a true freshman in 2023. Earned All-SEC Freshman team 

• Injured for the first few games of 2024 but played in 11 games at LT.

• Started all 15 games for Alabama in 2025. Earned first team All-SEC honours

Strengths

• Has a tonne of experience, having played 3 full seasons in the SEC 

• He is a man mauler. He uses his weight and power very well

• Fun tape to watch. He takes a snap from the wildcat and powers up the gut against Mizzou. See him line up at receiver against Georgia for a screen pass and also line up in the backfield for a carry against Vandy!! - Is this what we want from Mailata??

• Has the ability to pull as a lead-blocker. 

• Overall pass blocking grade of 84.2 (PFF)

• Overall run blocking grade of 81.1 (PFF)

• Comes from a premier college programme.Ordinary players don’t get to start LT for 3 years for Alabama. 

Limitations

• Allowed 21 pressures in 2025, including 2 sacks. 

• His lateral movement isn’t ideal, possibly needs to shed some weight. This probably ties in to him seemingly looking tired late in games. Rep v South Carolina late 4th down play he lets the rusher run right round him.

• Will likely struggle against fast twitchy rushers

• I think he gets too excited to hit someone sometimes and misses a block at the second level.

Loch Lomond Comp: Inchmoan - Bold, Strong. The peat smoke hits you with immediate power at the point of contact - that's Kadyn. 

Spencer Fano OT Utah - Junior

6’6 308lbs - 21yo

• Started his career at LT for Utah, however, struggled in his freshman season

• Made the switch to RT in the bowl game against Northwestern and kept the job through 2024 eventually earning First team All-Big12

• He started in 12 games at RT (opted out of the bowl game as many prospects do) and made First Team All-American and Big 12. He also won the Outland Trophy (best lineman award - Jordan Davis won this in 2021) - Other recipients include; Penei Sewell, Kelvin Banks, Quinnen Williams

Strengths

• Has a tonne of experience, having played 3 full seasons in the Pac 12/Big 12 

• Only allowed 5 pressures and zero sacks allowed in 2025. His previous year was still only 12 pressures and 1 sack. He has been tremendous at RT.

• One of the few true RTs in this draft.  

• Has an excellent combination of speed and power. Can pull and block downhill with speed and aggression.

• Overall pass blocking grade of 81.5 (PFF)

• Overall run blocking grade of 80.0 (PFF)

• I think he might be OT1 in this drat after giving him a bit more of a deep-dive.

Limitations

• Struggled at LT at Utah so possibly only a true RT, although that was some time ago and he has improved dramatically the past two seasons.

• Lightweight for an OT (308lbs) probably needs to add some mass

• Competition in the Big12 isn't as fierce as the SEC/Big10. He notably had a poor game against Texas Tech who have a very good DL. (See. David Bailey / Lee Hunter)

• It will (very likely) require a trade up to grab him. More draft capital. 

• Combine update: arm length a concern 32 ⅛ is considered well below average, smaller hand size (9”). Will Campbell / Peter Skoronski type length 

LL Comp: Loch Lomond 18 - Premium. refined. polished. premium.

Caleb Lomu OT Utah - RS Sophomore

6’6 308lbs - 21yo

• Backup tackle in his freshman year in 2023. Only 25 snaps total - redshirted

• Became the starting left tackle for the Utes in 2024, playing in all 12  games surrendering 17 pressures and 2 sacks.

• Entered the 2025 season as one of the best (if not the best) tackle duos in college football, opposite Spencer Fano. Played all 12 games and made first team all-Big 12

Strengths

• Has good experience, having played 2 full seasons in the Big 12 

• Only 8 pressures and zero sacks allowed in 2025.  

• Has excellent athleticism. Probably due to his lighter frame.

• Overall pass blocking grade of 82.1 (PFF)

• Overall run blocking grade of 62.0 (PFF)

• Light on his feet, really nice hand placement

Limitations

• Lightweight for an OT (308lbs) probably needs to add some mass. Might get exposed by power bull-rushers.

• Struggles to really MOVE people in the run game

• Competition in the Big12 isn't as fierce as the SEC/Big10. He notably had a poor game against Texas Tech who have a very good DL. (See. David Bailey / Lee Hunter)

• Within the Eagles range

Loch Lomond Comp: Loch Lomond 12 - Inchmurrin - Light bodied but flavourful.

Max Iheanachor OT Arizona State - RS Senior

6’6 330lbs - 24yo

• Was plying his trade at East LA Community College

• Transferred to Az State in 2023. Injuries along the offensive line forced him into action where he played six games with five starts at RT

• Won the starting job and played in all 14 games at RT in 2024

• Played in all 12 games in 2025 earning Second Team All-Big12 (Fano)

Strengths

• Has an ideal build for the tackle position

• Dominated 1v1s at the Senior Bowl

• 14 pressures and zero sacks allowed in 2025.  Has been improving year-on-year

• Has excellent athleticism at 330, footwork and balance are excellent

• Explodes out of stance and does a great job keeping guys infront of him.

• Overall pass blocking grade of 78.3 (PFF)

• Overall run blocking grade of 66.8 (PFF)

• Exhibits power, can stand-up bullrushers

• Combine update: Ran a 4.91,very impressive for his size. Good measureables

Limitations

• Has only been playing football since 2021. Relatively new to the sport. Needs development

• Some bearhugs show up on film. Needs to work on hand placement, coachable.

• Needs improvement in run blocking schemes. 

• Has trouble with speed rushers, needs better technique 

• Competition in the Big12 isn't as fierce as the SEC/Big10 although performed well v Texas Tech. 

• A potential trade back option or trade up in the 2nd. Don’t think he’ll make it to 54 with his Senior Bowl performance.

Loch Lomond Comp: Loch Lomond 12 Inchmoan - Bold and strong.
