Offensive tackle has been a strength of the last three NFL Draft classes. In each class there have been talented offensive tackles who fit a variety of offensive schemes and have come contributed immediately.
The jury is still out on the 2023 offensive line class, but there are certainly players with potential. One of the most intriguing is Ohio State’s Paris Johnson Jr., who will be transitioning from guard to tackle in 2022. Will he be able to successfully move to left tackle and potentially raise his draft stock? Or will Johnson “just” be an athletic guard who can back up tackle in a pinch?
