Offensive tackles will get drafted early and often all throughout the 2022 NFL Draft. Luckily for franchises that won't have the luxury of drafting the first or second tackle off the board, the middle rounds are absolutely loaded with potential high-end talents.
MW: That’s a great question. Obviously, those two things threw some adversity my way, but it’s all about what you do with that adversity and how you approach it that will allow you to make the most of your situation. Going into my final year, I was a team captain and I wanted to shape the culture while helping the team rally around our opportunities.
I definitely opened some people’s eyes at the combine. I’m proving that I can play at the next level despite coming from a smaller school. Where I came from doesn’t matter. I knew I was going to test pretty well because I’ve always been an impressive athlete for my size. I definitely think I opened some eyes at the end of the day.
JM: Absolutely. You’ve mentioned your athletic ability and it obviously pops on tape, and it certainly did at the combine as well. There are a lot of outside zone teams in the NFL nowadays, including the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams. Is that a scheme you see yourself playing in at the next level?
JM: All of that makes sense. Have you met with any teams virtually or via Top 30 in-person visits, and do you have any more of those coming up?
