The NFL Scouting Combine was buzzing with offensive line news on Friday, particularly in regards to Louisville’s Mekhi Becton and Iowa’s Trsitan Wirfs. Already believed to be going in the top half of the first round prior to their combine showings, Becton and Wirfs could now make it the most top-heavy lineman draft since 2013, as Georgia’s Andrew Thomas and Alabama’s Jedrick Wills have also been projected for the top-10.
The difference being that 2013 was simply one of the worst drafts of all-time (those linemen were Eric Fisher, Luke Joeckel, Lane Johnson, Jonathan Cooper, and Chance Warmack all going in the top 10) but 2020 is not expected to be like that.
