OFFENSIVE TACKLE RANKINGS 2027 NFL DRAFT

Tackle is the healthy part of this offensive line class, and a typical year: two inside our top fifteen and five inside the top thirty-two, the same spread as most of the last seven.

Indiana's Carter Smith leads 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, giving up seven pressures on the blindside in his first year there. SMU's PJ Williams brings 29 career starts, a captaincy and second-team All-ACC honours at right tackle, allowing two sacks on the season.

The middle of the group is tightly packed, so arm length and scheme fit are likely to separate these tackles rather than the tape.
