NFL
What I mean is players that share the same name and position as a more well-known player. For example, the 49ers once had a defensive tackle named Chris Jones, but he is not the same defensive tackle named Chris Jones that plays for the Chiefs
Cardinals quickly moving on from Rosen, Eagles starting Hurts despite having Wentz extended are all examples of teams avoiding sunk cost fallacies. But what are some examples of teams falling into the traps?

Hello Flock! As you may have noticed, I’m not from a round here but ever since the Ravens became a team, I’ve been a fan. Here in Minnesota, the Golden Gophers have a rivalry with the Wisconsin Badgers and their football teams play a special rivalry game for a trophy called “Paul Bunyan’s Axe.” In the NHL, the New Jersey Devils and Seattle Kraken play for the “Cryptid Cup” and the winner get a little trophy with devil horns and squid tentacles decorating it. It’s got me thinking, what if the NFL teams did games like this too? My proposal would be “The Odin Bowl”, as a game between Vikings and Ravens. Since the teams don’t play each other often, I think it would be a cool way to emphasize such match ups, especially for NFC vs AFC teams. What match ups do you think would work in this kind of scenario? What would you call the “bowl game”? (I also think it’s best to use teams from different divisions as division rivals always play twice and teams could split wins.)
The NFL today is almost like a different game compared to the way it was played back in the day. The players were often bloody and muddy, the quarterbacks weren’t treated like fragile primadonnas, and the logos and lore were legendary. If you are nostalgic for the Gridiron greatness of the past, this sub is for you.

We talked about a lot flash with a tremendous last week and then while not as stacked with top-end talent, an incredibly deep . Now, let’s transition to the trenches and start with the guys asked to block, so the quarterback can even get the ball out in the first place.
Although I don’t want to hype up all these positions, this is a strong stretch we’ve arrived at, because I would argue while we can discuss the order the two groups we just talked about plus offensive tackle are the top three classes overall. I have six names with legit first-round grades, about ten more who should go day two and then there are some very interesting developmental to take on shot rounds four through seven.
Three players who played tackle in college but will be part of my interior O-line rankings next week – Duke’s Graham Barton, Kansas’ Dominick Puni and TCU’s Brandon Coleman.
Here’s the list and I think we start off with a slight surprise for many people:
.
.
.
1. Olumuyiwa Fashanu, Penn State
6’6”, 315 pounds; RS JR
.
A top-500 overall recruit in 2020, Fashanu redshirted his first year on campus, before seeing action in nine and starting one game the following season. In 2022 he took over as a full-time starter at left tackle, where he immediately earned second-team All-Big Ten accolades, despite getting injured eight games into the season. This past season he was in the lineup for all 13 contests and ended up being a first-team All-American.
.
Run-blocking:
+ Shows impressive explosion off the ball, to get to his landmarks in the run game
+ Effectively reach-blocks five- or pins inside 4/4i-techniques on off-tackle runs the other way
+ Rapidly closes the gap to the hip of his guard on the backside of zone concepts, in order to overtake and allow his teammate to peel off combos early
+ Covers up B-gap defenders in concert with his left guard and creates vertical movement fairly effortlessly, while being able to knock them off balance when catching them on an angle, along with a kick-out block to his side
+ He’s so light on his feet, to flawlessly transitioning to linebackers after stepping down on the D-tackle and having to adjust his angle on the fly
+ Has eye-popping reps directly working up to the second level and engulfing linebackers, particularly allowing the ball-carrier to get out to the edge
+ Quickly recognizes when there’s no angle to attach on combos and to flick his hips in order to cut somebody from the backside
+ Becomes a rolling train as a puller out to the corner on crack-toss plays, Watching him hustle out to blocking a defensive back in the screen game and actually landing blows is pretty fun
.
Pass-protection:
+ Has the quick feet to gain ground in his pass-sets, but will adjust his approach depending on who’s in front of him
+ His hands seem to really catch rushers and control reps once he lands them inside the frame of his man, whilst being quickly to re-fit his inside hand into their chest and the elbow in tight if those do get wide momentarily
+ Possesses a strong base and stays wide with it, to swallow stabs and handle power rushers – The way he can absorb and negate bull-rush attempts as he sees edge rushers take a more direct path is excellent
+ Even if the defender is the lower man initially, he can re-anchor as that space closes towards his quarterback, to not take away that guy’s throwing platform
+ Yet he’s also loose enough to flip his hips around and adjust as guys try to work across his face and seem to have an angle on him initially – Rarely oversteps and is quick to put his foot back down to spin moves either way
+ Already showcases independent hand-usage to bait the hands of rushers, square up rushers leaning to the inside or punching at the near-shoulder, to ride his man past the quarterback when they take a steep angle upfield
+ The way he can cover ground against defenders rushing from extra wide alignments or blitzing off the slot, to negate their angle or push them to overshoot the arc is certainly uncommon for tackles
+ Improved his alertness for twists up front, being pro-active with erasing space to the guard and using his hands to take over delayed loopers
+ Didn’t allow a single sack in his career with the Nittany Lions and just 17 other pressures (733 total pass-blocking snaps) – I would’ve charged with half a sack
.
Weaknesses:
- Needs to be more urgent establishing that inside foot when the action is going away from him and he should force edge defenders to take a wide path around him
- PFF handed him an underwhelming run-blocking grade of 59.4 in 2022 and barely cracked the 70-mark last season, where he lacks consistent temperament (only one career game where he hit 75+)
- Has to improve his footwork or how he aligns himself once contact is initiated to stay latched onto blocks – measuring in with the smallest hands for an offensive tackle since 1999 (8-and-½ inches) certainly doesn’t help with that
- Gets a little antsy at times when he tries to overextend his reach, rather than letting rushers close that space on pass plays
.
Other than maybe North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye, I’m not sure if there’s a player people have started to overthink as badly as Fashanu during this draft process. He literally had a couple of poor reps against Ohio State edge defender J.T. Tuimoloau, where he got caught off balance, which is one game I hear being brought up with him in a negative sense – as if the other 49 pass-blocking snaps that way weren’t clean for him. The one concern I do understand when it comes to his profile is the lack of growth he’s shown, particularly in the run game, after he was looked at as the potential OT1 a year ago already. With his small hands, there may be some limitations at sustaining blocks in that regard, but his future O-line coach can absolutely raise his urgency and work on a couple of footwork nuances to make him effective in that regard. More importantly, this guy could be an elite pass-protector from day one – and he won’t turn 22 years old until December. If he drops out of the top-ten, I think he’s a steal.
.
.
.
2. Joe Alt, Notre Dame
6‘8“, 315 pounds; JR
.
One of the top-500 overall recruits in 2021, the son of former NFL Pro Bowl tackle John Alt, Joe played in all 13 and started the latter eight games at left tackle for Notre Dame as a true freshman. Each of the last two years, he was a first-team All-American (unanimous in 2023), being in the lineup for all 25 contests he’s been available for. He helped pave the way for an offense that rushed for just under 5000 yards over the past two seasons combined and averaged 39.1 points in 2023.
.
Run-blocking:
+ Nimble athlete for his 6’8”+ stature, running a 5.05 in the 40 and finishing with the top marks among tackles in both the agility drills
+ Presents a long reach, which allows him steer defenders trying to work around or dip underneath him
+ Uses the momentum of edge defenders against them in the run game regularly, as he gets his hands underneath their arm pit and takes them off track if they try to get upfield with their first couple of steps
+ Does a great job of attaching to the hip of his guard and providing vertical movement on combo-blocks with him thanks to strong leg-drive
+ You regularly see Alt get underneath the chest-plate or arm-pit of three-techniques and catch them off balance when they pull someone behind him
+ Shows the reactionary ability to secure the B-gap and then peel back on the edge defender on the backside of certain run calls where he’s assigned hinge-blocks, to push that guy up the field
+ Frequently takes linebackers way off their landmarks by getting his hands on them and keeping those legs churning
+ Notre Dame regularly would pull him from the backside on power and counter concepts, where he’d take a narrow path behind the butts of his fellow linemen before bending up the front-side gap
+ Has some impressive reps on tape, where they pin down the end-man and pull him out to the corner, in order to take a defensive back for a ride on toss plays
.
Pass-protection:
+ Has the athletic feet to cut off the angle for edge rushers and lands his hands inside their chest very effectively
+ Just trying to speed around the arc isn’t a recipe for success against this guy, because you will not have the optimal path with his kind of length
+ Capable of getting his hands at the arm-pits of rushers to slow down their charge but have his weight shifted onto his base that he keeps behind himself, so guys can’t get around him even if they do slide off
+ Alt’s eyes immediately transition inside and his hands are ready at his mid-section to take over the B-gap rusher, as he sees his man on the edge stick his outside foot in the ground for T-E twists
+ When his man is doing the set-up, Alt makes sense to hand off the spiker before peeling off to the guy trying to get around the edge
+ Appears under control if the picture is muddy and they have to sort out games, comfortable delivering the first punch on the man in range before picking up his ultimate assignment
+ Had a great showing against Clemson first-round pick Myles Murphy on the edge in 2022, not allowing a single pressure that day
+ Only was charged with one sack and 12 additional pressures surrendered across 776 pass-blocking snaps these last two years combined, as PFF’s highest-ranked tackle in the FBS each of the past two seasons as a true sophomore and junior (91.4 and 90.7 respectively)
.
Weaknesses:
- I don’t see an overpowering run-blocker, who gets the job done with angles and hand-placement over raw force to displace guys actually trying to set a firm edge
- Not the most naturally fluid athlete, which shows up when defenders try to back-door him or he has to redirect against slanting D-linemen post-snap
- Already has that tall build and then is a little late to brace against power at times
- His hands in protection when he doesn’t battle early in pass-pro reps look more like he’s ready to catch the ball than deliver impact, as he rarely is the one to set the tone that way
.
While Alt will make his way inside my personal top-ten, I believe he’s not quite the slam-dunk prospect consensus rankings would make you believe he is. His tape at Notre Dame – in particular last season – is very clean and he was only charged with four penalties on 2214 total snaps in his career. However, whether it’s transferring force from the ground up and sustaining blocks on challenging angles or naturally absorbing force in pass-protection by sinking his hands, I believe he’ll be challenged in new ways against NFL athletes. Not saying at all that he wasn’t coached very well with the Fighting Irish, looking at the way they’ve shown to be able to develop offensive linemen, but with more quick-twitch movements to erase connecting points on run plays and pro pass-rushers who understand how to effective convert speed-to-power, he won’t be able to make it look as easy as he did in college. I’d still have no problem with him being the first tackle off the board, but I think there are five guys at the top of the class with very similar grades and no medical concerns to speak of.
.
.
.
3. J.C. Latham, Alabama
6’6”, 340 pounds; JR
.
The number one offensive tackle recruit in 2021, Latham was a backup as a true freshman thanks to insanely strong book-ends for the Crimson Tide, before taking over the right tackle gig the following season for all 13 contests the next season. He did the same this past season when ascending to a first-team All-SEC performer and a second-team All-American.
.
Run-blocking:
+ Offers the density and pure mass of an NFL guard, but pairs that with 35-inch arms and shocking movement skills in relation to his measurements
+ Has a massive amount of raw force in those 11-inch hands to displace defenders in the run game
+ On the front-side of inside-oriented concepts, the torque he can create with the inside hand and get edge defenders towards the opposite hip, to open up the B-gap definitely stands out
+ Routinely is able to get underneath the shoulder or arm-pit of interior linemen and ride them down the line
+ Is able to unlock his lower half to dig guys out of the lane on combos – you see him and his guard legitimately move guys like 330-pound brickhouse Nazir Stackhouse from Georgia five yards backwards
+ Does a great job of stepping vertically and dropping the back-side shoulder into a down-linemen the tight-end is trying to seal away from the action without limiting his ability to secure blocks on the second level
+ Even if he can’t latch his hands perfectly onto targets in the defensive backfield, he’s regularly able to still move them off their landmarks
+ Earned a career-best PFF run-blocking grade of 79.6 in 2023
.
Pass-protection:
+ Urgent out of his stance and is a pretty smooth mover around 340+ pounds to counter different types of approaches in pass-protection
+ Tremendous feet and ability to frame rushers, in order to mirror twitchy defenders
+ Can soften the charge of rushers and cut off angles for them with his hands in effective fashion, along with regularly baiting guys with fake-stabs with the outside hand, forcing them to commit
+ When he gets his hands inside the chest of rushers and his elbow in tight, guys just aren’t getting away from him anymore – he puts them in a cage
+ Along with that ability to lock people up, he’s really quick to stab with the outside hand and then latch the other one
+ Gets into a wide base in order to slow down bull-rush attempts and you’re not going to be able to flatten at the top of the rush against him if you have to go through him
+ Offers good eye-balance and feel for timing, as he makes sure to pass off slanting D-ends to his guard and peel off late with a wide step to guide slot blitzers past the quarterback
+ If defenders he’s engaged with lose their balance or lean too far into him, Latham will snatch-trap them to the turf a couple of times per game
+ Was responsible for just two total sacks (both in 2023) and 12 other pressures in each of the past two seasons – 960 combined pass-blocking snaps)
.
Weaknesses:
- Because he can rely in the natural strength in his upper body so much, Latham doesn’t always perfectly center his blocks and get his feet aligned all the time in the run game – backside cut-offs have been an issue at times
- Tends to go too flat down the line of scrimmage and overstride a little bit at times on the front-side of run concepts and allows edge defenders to work around him, in order to throw off the timing
- Edge rushers who can threaten the corner with speed end up crossing his face quite a bit, as he opens his hips too far towards the sideline
- Occasionally will get caught up with wanting to get a piece of both guys when the defenses rushes someone to either side of him with the guard sliding the other way, instead of just taking care of the inner-most threat
- Was penalized a massive 18 times since the start of 2022
.
Similarly to Penn State’s Olu Fashanu, I believe Latham too often is judged based on one play without looking at the big picture. He didn’t seal a defender on the backside urgently enough on the final play of the Rose Bowl vs. Michigan, but let’s not ignore that he legitimately had one bad snap the entire time of regulation that day. Because he’s so big, there are some things to clean up in terms of his footwork and hand-placement in order to maximize what he can be as a run-blocker, but considering the bright moments of moving big men against their will, he could be truly dominant in that regard. And then in pass-protection, he has one key flaw, opening the door for inside counters. Yet, I don’t believe he lacks the foot quickness to gain enough depth to avoid getting in that position or to mirror even if he allows those opportunities. He already uses his outside hand exceptionally well to throw off guys coming off the edge, keeping them guessing with whether he’ll initiate contact or not and when he’s in tight quarters with him, it’s a wrap. Latham has the potential to be the top tackle from this class by year three as a pro.
.
.
.
4. Taliese Fuaga, Oregon State
6‘6“, 325 pounds; RS JR
.
A three-star recruit in 2020, Fuaga saw action in four games as a true freshman (retaining his redshirting) and then ten the following season as a backup. In 2022 he took over the right tackle gig (started all 13 contests) and earned second-team All-Pac-12 accolades. This past season he improved to first-team all-conference and was a second-team All-American as a 12-game starter for the Beavers. He started all 12 contests he was available for this past year and repeated those honors.
.
Run-blocking:
+ Absolute mauler in the run-game, who erases space quickly, latches into defenders and takes them for a ride with regularity
+ Capable of blowing the B-gap wide open on the front-side by driving edge defenders towards the sideline
+ Has such an insanely strong inside hand when being engaged with edge defenders on the front-side of zone concepts and they’re trying to stay square, yet he delivers force and pushes them towards his outside hip
+ You regularly see Fuaga ride somebody from the backside past the center and five yards down the field, which creates massive cutback lanes
+ Helps provide plenty of vertical displacement with his guard on “duo” concepts, whilst staying ready to get a piece of the linebacker trying to circle around them
+ With this mountain of a man, it looks like he’s tossing around some kids at times when he gets his hands on bodies at the second level
+ Routinely adds in a shove at the end of reps to put defenders on the ground
+ For as massive as this guy is, his ability to cover ground on perimeter-oriented plays and screens, along with the body-control to put himself in position to wall off bodies in space stands out
+ Received the highest PFF run-blocking grade among all FBS tackles in 2023 (90.9)
.
Pass-protection:
+ Consistently gets a good job jump off the snap in pass-pro in order to gain necessary depth whilst keeping his shoulders square to the line of scrimmage
+ Operates with a very well-coordinated kick-slide and is able to frame rushers appropriately
+ When Fuaga hits guys straight in the chest, he completely stuns them and transition to a more reactionary mode
+ Truly ingests power-rush attempts and makes those defenders irrelevant, not only based on raw strength but also how well he gets all his cleats in the ground to anchor
+ Uses his hands well in independent fashion, being able to cut off lateral movement as guys try to get around him
+ Recognizes when rushers are losing their balance and he can step back to not give them the ability to use his body to re-gain it or “help” them to the turf
+ Quick to ID T-E twists and get his post foot down to jack up spiking linemen trying to create a lane for the looper, while generally doing a good job of feeling pressure up the B-gap as the defensive front declares what they’re doing
+ Didn’t allow any sacks and just 23 total pressures across 716 pass-blocking since 2022, despite facing the country’s pressure leader Bralen Trice in both seasons, along with the Laiatu Latu and the rest of that UCLA group last year
.
Weaknesses:
- Will occasionally allow defenders on the edge to slip inside of his blocks in the run-game by shifting his weight too far to the outside foot
- Trying to scoop-block backside B-gap defenders, Fuaga relies on overwhelming those guys and neutralizing them by taking them out of the picture rather than getting his play-side foot in front of them and cutting off their angle towards the ball
- Lacks the kind of foot quickness/stride length to get to his landmarks against wide rushers at times
- Barely cracks 33 inches in terms of arm length and whether that’s turning the corner on him with speed or guys being able to establish first meaningful contact to not allow him to dictate reps early, Fuaga will be challenged to new dimensions vs. NFL pass-rushers
- Tends to stop his feet momentarily as he goes for his strike in pass-pro and more advanced rushers will be able to take advantage of that more regularly
.
There hasn’t been another tackle in college football who has kicked ass every single week over the past two seasons with the type of consistency Fuaga showed over that stretch. Whether it’s widening the edge on the front-side of run calls, taking interior defenders off their landmarks or pushing around linebackers almost effortlessly, this guy has put fear into the hearts of Pac-12 defenses. He’s also been a highly effective pass-protector against a murderous slate of edge rushers. With that being said, he did benefit from a heavy dose of play-action, as only about 40% of his pass sets were labelled as “true dropbacks” by Pro Football Focus, and he was able to kick straight back with level shoulders a lot of times, rather than guys challenging him with more favorable angles from wide alignments. Considering he’s on the fringe of arm length required to play on the edge at the NFL level, I can see why some teams would project him to guard. I personally believe he may ultimately end up there and be a perennial Pro Bowl candidate, but if his future team doesn’t drop back on 65+ percent of plays with a star quarterback who likes to hold onto the ball, he can also be an impact starter at right tackle for years to come.
.
.
.
5. Amarius Mims, Georgia
6’8”, 340 pounds; JR
.
A top-20 national recruit in 2021, Mims saw action as a backup in seven games as a true freshman. He was on the field for 12 contests as a fill-in OT, before jumping in for the injured Warren McClendon on the right side for the College Football Playoff (Peach Bowl vs. Ohio State and Natty vs. TCU). This past season, Mims suffered a high-ankle sprain midway through week three and underwent tightrope surgery, in order to return for the final four contests.
.
Run-blocking:
+ Total freakshow measurement-wise – 6’8”, 340 pounds with seemingly no ounce of fat to his body, just over 36-inch arms and 11-and-¼ inch hands
+ Carries devastating vigor in his hands and the powerful quads to ride people along once he’s created some initial momentum
+ In one step closes the gap created when the guard inside of him pulls and puts his massive frame in the way, forcing defenders to take a wider path around him
+ Can use the movement of defenders against them, like D-ends attacking up the field and him drive them that way, in order to open up the frontside B-gap
+ Has the short-area agility to reach-block or pin defensive ends in wider alignments inside when they ran swing screens
+ Shows the reactionary athleticism and hip flexibility to peel back against pursuit defenders on plays out to the perimeter
+ The way he engulfs linebackers gliding up to them on end-around or reverses almost seems unfair
+ Easy mover getting out in space on toss plays or as part of the screen game and people are typically trying to get out of his way
.
Pass-protection:
+ Covers ground pretty effortlessly to choke off the angle for edge rushers on diagonal sets
+ His massive frame and insane length make him incredibly tough to get around in order to arrive at the quarterback
+ Stands up edge rushers quite regularly by getting under their pads, never being out-reached
+ Already shows flashes of advanced hand-usage, swatting down the inside hand of defenders in order to latch into their chest
+ Has some impressive moments of recovering laterally after oversetting vs. spin moves or dropping the anchor after losing the initial contact phase
+ Displays the foot quickness to stay a half step behind hard-charging blitzers off the edge and then guide them past the arc as they try to flatten at the apex
+ Packs so much force in his hands to pass off slanting D-linemen on twists, before sliding in front of loopers coming his way – I’ve seen him send guys airborne as they try to cross his face
+ Wasn’t responsible for a single sack or QB hit and just six hurries across 402 career pass-blocking snaps, with PFF grades above 82 in each of the last two years
+ Looked like a top-ten pick in the Ohio State game (Peach Bowl) in 2022, more than holding his own against a tremendous defensive front for the Buckeyes, as he didn’t allow a single pressure on the QB
.
Weaknesses:
- Appears a little bit lazy (with his lower half) and isn’t looking for work if he doesn’t have anybody in his way in the run game
- Gets too tall in his pass-sets and allows rushers to fit into his chest, despite those tree branches attached to his shoulders
- Lifts that inside foot way too much and leaves the B-gap vulnerable on up-and-under moves when defenders able to swipe down the inside hand
- Generally his understanding for how to frame rushers and not present soft edges is a work in progress at this point still, in large due to the lack of live reps
- Only started eight games in his career and didn’t even make it through the first quarter of the final one of those, for a total of 803 snaps across three seasons at Georgia, undergoing surgery on his ankle in the middle of last year
.
Amarius Mims is one of most intriguing players overall in this entire draft. He’s built like Zeus and his moments of dominance make your jaw hit the floor. Unfortunately, we have very limited tape to evaluate him based off and he doesn’t utilize his god-given ability at a consistent level yet. With that being said, this to me is much more about a lack of experience than being a “raw project”. When he’s been on the field for the Bulldogs, he’s performed at close to the All-SEC level we’ve seen come out of Georgia in recent years and I’d no offensive linemen in this entire class has a higher potential than him. So how high he may ultimately go will very much depend on if there’s anything concerning on his medical reports, since it would be foolish to label him “injury-prone” based on one data point. If his future coaching staff can get him to enforce his will on all run plays, fully utilize his length and keep his base level with his upper body in pass-pro, you’re looking at a guy with All-Pro upside.

6. Troy Fautanu, Washington
6’3”, 320 pounds; RS SR
.
This four-star recruit from 2019 initially took a redshirt and saw action as a backup in four games of the COVID-shortened season. After starting two games at left tackle and one more at left guard the year after that, he was in the lineup for all 13 contests in 2022, when he made second-team All-Pac-12. He improved to first-team this past season, being a mainstay in the lineup and key member of the Washington’s magical run to a national title game appearance.
.
Run-blocking:
+ Urgently comes out of his stance and is looking to quickly erase the space towards his D-linemen on angular blocks
+ You never see defenders crash through his inside shoulder when asked to seal the backside, instantly erasing the space to where the guard was originally aligned and turning his hips
+ Provides the short-area agility to reliably scoop-block three-techniques on the backside of wide zone concepts
+ At the same time he can secure the outside pec of edge defenders to his side and allow the ball to get out to the corner on sweeps and other concepts like that
+ On vertically-oriented concepts and particularly in short-yardage, Fautanu’s ability to come off with low pad-level and get underneath the pads of defenders really stands out
+ Shows the loose hips to adjust on the fly and get linebackers walled off as he works up to the second level
+ Displays impressive control and athletic ability to cover ground, come to balance and secure moving targets in the screen game
+ Along with eliminating arm length concerns (34.5 inches), Fautanu had an excellent all-around combine showing – 5.01 in the 40, 32.5-inch vert and 9’5” broad jump
