Lucas Niang | TCU
Niang was a very good run blocker during his time in college. He is physical and powerful at the point of attack. He uses his length well to move interior linemen. Niang missed half of last season with a hip injury, requiring surgery and ending his senior year on the field. Like many day two picks, he is a player who needs to develop consistency. However, he has the skills to play tackle in the NFL with his strength and the awareness he displayed at TCU.
LUCAS NIANG the RT Tackle is well known as one of the nations best pass blockers. But tonight, his run blocking really impressed me. He had several blocks like this one. He’s fun to watch. pic.twitter.com/cY949dfUTt

Netane Muti | Fresno State
Muti has dealt with injuries throughout his time in college. He started 14 games as a redshirt freshman in 2017 but has missed substantial time with various injuries during three of his four years in college. When on the field, though, Muti is powerful, moving linemen out of the way at will. He led all draft prospects in the bench press, putting up 44 reps. The injuries set Muti back a bit, and teams might worry about his durability. Nevertheless, he’s a strong anchor on the interior of the line. He might not be the best in space, but he was adequate when called upon.
One of my favorite players in this draft is Fresno State's guard Netane Muti.
Just saw he did 44 reps on the bench press. He's going to be special in the #NFL. pic.twitter.com/MPtVT8J55F
