In the latest episode titled "Top 15 Offensive Tackles: 2024 NFL Draft," the spotlight shines on the premier talent among offensive tackle prospects gearing up for the upcoming draft. Leading the pack is Joe Alt from Notre Dame, a former tight end turned tackle known for his exceptional athleticism and ability to create running lanes. With a stellar performance in the 2023 season and a remarkable 90.7 PFF rating, Alt is projected as a top-10 pick, offering teams a dynamic presence on the offensive line.
Following closely is Taliese Fuaga from Oregon State, recognized for his agility and effectiveness in screen blocking, despite concerns about his athleticism. With consistent performances and an 88.2 PFF rating, Fuaga is expected to be a first-round selection, providing teams with a reliable option at tackle.
JC Latham from Alabama emerges as another top prospect, lauded for his strength and proficiency as a run blocker. Despite occasional struggles with finesse, Latham's imposing presence and solid performance, earning an 81.9 PFF rating, make him a first-round contender.
Olu Fashanu from Penn State showcases impressive athleticism and footwork, though balance issues raise concerns about his overall effectiveness. Despite a thigh injury and a truncated 2023 season, Fashanu's potential as a top-15 pick remains evident.
Jordan Morgan from Arizona stands out for his exceptional run-blocking skills and steady improvement throughout his college career, though a torn ACL and short arm present challenges. Nevertheless, Morgan is expected to be selected in the first or second round, offering teams a promising prospect at tackle.
With the NFL Draft on the horizon, the excitement continues to build around these top offensive tackle prospects, each offering unique strengths and areas for development as they transition to the professional level.
