11. Matt Peart | Connecticut | #65 | Senior | Bronx, NY | 6065 | 318
40-Yard Dash: 5.06 seconds
Bench Press: 26 reps
Vertical Jump: 30 inches
Broad Jump: 113 inches
3-Cone Drill: 8.01 seconds
20-Yard Shuttle: 4.92 seconds
Career: Four year starter for the Huskies. Started 48 straight games.
Red Flags: N/A
Strengths: NFL frame with outstanding arm length. Quick initial set-up to cut off speed. Resets quickly to recover-and-counter after a rusher’s first punch/move. Displays bounce in his feet to stay coordinated mid-shuffle – his hoops background is evident, rarely giving up the corner. Good lateral quickness and able to race ahead of the pack on pull blocks and screens. Good reactive athleticism to recover when beaten around the edge. Keeps his balance through contact and stays off the ground. Rolls hips and drives his legs to uproot defenders as a run blocker.
Weaknesses: Play strength needs continued development. Not a powerful tackle and won’t generate much push as in-line blocker. Technique is a work-in-progress. Not a natural knee-bender, leading to pads and hips tending to rise off the snap. Inconsistent hands, creating awkward positioning and allowing rushers to get inside his frame and bully him backwards. Shoots hands too soon. Needs to do a better job locking out and sitting in his stance to maintain spacing. Allows defenders to rip through his edge.
Final Word: Peart is an athletic tackle who quickly finds his landmarks and uses his natural movement skills, base and length to keep rushers busy as well as possessing the mobility to work at the second level, but his hand technique and functional strength need improvement, projecting as a solid starting right tackle by Year 2 with the ability to kick to the left side.

12. Prince Tega Wanogho | Auburn | #76 | RS Senior | Nigeria | 6050 | 308
40-Yard Dash: N/A
Bench Press: N/A
Vertical Jump: N/A
Broad Jump: N/A
3-Cone Drill: N/A
20-Yard Shuttle: N/A
Career: Started 32 career games for the Tigers.
Red Flags: Missed most of the draft process due to an injury. Redshirted in 2015 while recovering from a broken leg.
Strengths: Long, athletic frame. Great foot quickness. Possesses terrific lateral range and reaching ability. Gets depth with smooth, fluid kick-slide and does a good job of mirroring. Agile enough to win the edge in pass protection and has the strength to reset and hold his ground if the defender counters. Latches on and gets opponents moving with finesse and instincts in the run game. Has strength to anchor, hands carry power in pass protection. Explodes out of stance into defender. Accelerates feet after contact and finishes. Moves smoothly to the second level. Length and strength to redirect around the pocket when beaten around the edge. Reliable football character. Competitive toughness is evident.
Weaknesses: Inexperienced at the position and still raw. Didn’t play offensive line until he came to Auburn. Base can get too wide on pass protection, struggling to regather himself. Appears stiff when facing vertical rushes. Impatient and will panic if a defender does start to crowd him. Grip strength, hand placement and carrying out blocks are areas that need to be improved upon. He can struggle to engage athletic defenders at the second level. Works with technique on pass sets but loses that technique suddenly at the high point of the pass rush.
Final Word: Wanogho possesses overall athleticism with terrific feet, power in his hands and a frame that most offensive tackles would kill for, but he is raw with his technique and his instincts are a work in progress, projecting as a starting tackle with an impressive ceiling if everything clicks.
Fit Likelihood: High
13. Saahdiq Charles | LSU | #77 | Junior | Jackson, MS | 6041 | 321
40-Yard Dash: 5.05 seconds
Bench Press: N/A
Vertical Jump: N/A
Broad Jump: N/A
3-Cone Drill: N/A
20-Yard Shuttle: N/A
Career: Started 28 games over the course of three years with the Tigers. Part of an offensive line that won the 2019 Joe Moore Award for best OL in college football.
Red Flags: Suspended for six games during the 2019 season. Had shoulder surgery in 2018. Significant character red flags may take him off some draft boards.
Strengths: Solid athlete. Effortless lateral quickness with light feet. Balanced center of gravity in his kickslide. Flexible hips to react to inside moves. Uses his length to meet rushers mid-shuffle. Plays with good pad level. Aggressive run blocker, latching and running his feet. Silky smooth out in space. Mean streak and plays with an attitude.
Weaknesses: Needs time to transform his body for the NFL, adding functional strength. Wild technique and often finds himself out of position. Caught leaning and doesn’t have a firm grasp on timing. Needs to tighten up his punch and handwork, leaving his chest open for rushers. Needs to better sink his hips to strengthen his anchor.
Final Word: Charles is an impressive athlete who possesses exceptional movement skills and movement skills in the pass and run-blocking, but he lacks the strength in his hands and finishing tenacity, projecting as a low-end starting left tackle as long as he can stay clean with any off-the-field issues.
Fit Likelihood: High
14. Hakeem Adeniji | Kansas | #78 | Senior | Garland, TX | 6043 | 308
40-Yard Dash: 5.17 seconds
Bench Press: 26 reps
Vertical Jump: 34 inches
Broad Jump: 115 inches
3-Cone Drill: 8.32 seconds
20-Yard Shuttle: 5.08 seconds
Career: Played both right tackle and left tackle during his Kansas career. Started 48 straight games for the Jayhawks.
Red Flags: Tore both labrums in 2017.
Strengths: Thick bodied frame with long arms. Excellent kick slide, foot quickness and mirror ability to beat edge rushers and stay in front of them. Wide base and power in his punch to stymie defenders at point of attack. Core strength to anchor at shallow depth. Comfortable climbing to the second level. High football IQ.
Weaknesses: Inconsistent punch timing, exposing his chest a lot to defenders. Pad level can be inconsistent at times. Hand placement requires fine tuning. Not a mauler in the run game. Needs to better sink and roll his hips instead of relying on his upper body.
Final Word: Adeniji is a quick, reactive athlete that possesses sound hands and footwork as well as the discipline in pass protection, but he doesn’t have the ideal amount of power to stymie NFL-level defenders, projecting as a high-upside backup tackle or guard in a zone scheme.

15. Jack Driscoll | Auburn | #71 | RS Senior | Madison, CT | 6045 | 306
40-Yard Dash: 5.02 seconds
Bench Press: 23 reps
Vertical Jump: 29.5 inches
Broad Jump: 114 inches
3-Cone Drill: N/A
20-Yard Shuttle: N/A
Career: Transferred to Auburn from Massachusetts. Started 45 straight games between playing at Auburn and Massachusetts. Played only right tackle for Auburn, but has experience on the other side of the center.
Red Flags: N/A
Strengths: Sound footwork and lateral kick sliding to get depth off the line to cut off pass-rush angles. Handwork accuracy is precise to fend off counters. Good lower body strength to anchor. Always on alert to recognize additional blitzers. Stretches well on outside runs. Range to get to the second level with ease, latching onto linebackers and finishing. High football IQ.
Weaknesses: Average size and length. Has hip tightness, leaving him off balanced. Won’t overwhelm defenders, lacking power at the point of attack in his punch. Hand placement can be too wide at times, leaving his chest open. Marginal push as a run-blocker.
Final Word: Driscoll is a battle-tested player with an ideal combination of footwork and quickness who adapts to his opponent throughout the game, but his lack of strength and length hinders him, projecting as a backup right tackle with the ability to kick inside to guard in a zone scheme.
Fit Likelihood: Medium
