Offensive Line Rankings 2027 NFL Draft

112 offensive linemen ranked

OFFENSIVE LINE RANKINGS 2027 NFL DRAFT

This offensive line class is all tackle. Every one of the top five linemen on our 2027 board plays outside, and the first interior man falls further down it than in any of the previous six years - the weakest inside group we have graded.

Indiana's Carter Smith heads it after a national championship season in which he allowed nine pressures across more than a thousand snaps, winning his conference's lineman of the year award on a run of 36 consecutive starts. Missouri's Cayden Green moved from guard to left tackle two weeks before the opener and was first-team All-SEC by December. SMU's PJ Williams brings 29 career starts, a captaincy and second-team All-ACC honours.

Inside, the quality is real but the ceiling is not. Iowa's Kade Pieper was a first-team All-American on the Joe Moore Award-winning line and Oregon's Iapani Laloulu a Rimington Trophy finalist, yet neither grades anywhere near the top of the board.
