And what I found from my studies of this class and from looking over the positional rankings of others, the current <a href=\"https:\/\/jfosterdraft.com\/2027\/consensus-board\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">early consensus board<\/a>, and more, is that I have some pretty strong disagreements with how I line up with them.<\/p>\n<p>I have always been a person who scouts and ranks with my eyes, and not so much with what the consensus says. I am not afraid to be wrong and learn from it. That\u2019s the great part about summer scouting, however: none of these guys have played a single game in the 2026 season yet, and my mind is open to being changed! <\/p>\n<p>So, let\u2019s dig into this offensive tackle class and how I see it through summer scouting.<\/p>\n<p>Table of Contents<\/p>\n<p>As I\u2019ve done with every other positional rankings piece, we start off here by talking a bit about what I look for when scouting the position. I break down every position into five key categories (primarily to make the content more consumable and not get too in the weeds).<\/p>\n<p>Each of these categories carries a specific weight, and it is not a 20% split across the board. For example, for offensive linemen, obviously play strength is a component I am valuing far more than some of the others.<\/p>\n<p>For offensive tackles specifically, these five key categories are:<\/p>\n<p>Pass Protection\/Balance<\/p>\n<p>Hand Usage<\/p>\n<p>Play Strength<\/p>\n<p>Lower Half Tools<\/p>\n<p>Football Acumen<\/p>\n<p>You can find me and my co-host James Foster discussing what we watch for when scouting offensive tackles on the Daft on Draft Podcast <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Zj6taphKeU8\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">below<\/a>:<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We\u2019re back with another group of positional rankings!
