Cole Van Lanen has been a longtime starter for the Wisconsin Badgers. He enters the 2021 NFL draft after five years and 45 games. He spent the past two and a half years as a full-time starter at left tackle. However, does have experience inside and outside. Wisconsin is known for their offensive line prospects, but this experienced left tackle seems to be flying under the radar.
