Ranking the top 10 offensive linemen in 2025 NFL Draft
NY Post
The Post’s Ryan Dunleavy gives his top 10 offensive linemen in this year’s NFL draft, based on evaluations and conversations with people around the league:
Are his arms too short to play tackle? His 32 ⁵/₈ inches don’t meet NFL’s 34-inch benchmark. Or is that flaw-searching on a clean prospect? Packages leadership, strength and smarts. One sack allowed in final 30 starts. Seven false starts in 2024.
Crushed athletic testing and position drills at the combine. High upside. Exclusively played right tackle, though there is talk of a future at guard. Stays on balance and climbs to second level. Mirrors pass rusher’s moves. Knock-back power. Guilty of over-aggressiveness at times.
Shaky combine performance raised concerns about his athleticism. Imposing phone-booth blocker built to fit the rugged mold for a downhill running team. Sets pocket depth. Wants to crush his opponent’s soul. Vocal leader. Played on both sides of center.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba is being paid handsomely for his breakout season.
Next comes the harder part. Mostly because it can’t get any easier.
It was Kids Day at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, but for the Rangers, it’s been All About The Kids for months.
PORT ST. LUCIE — From the moment he was told he needed surgery on his left hamate bone, Francisco Lindor fixated on the recovery time. Trainers provided the Mets shortstop a six-week pathway to return to play, and Lindor was determined to hit every marker.
Dylan Garand knew the number off the top of his head. He knew that, between the regular season and playoffs, he’d logged over 160 games with AHL Hartford, and he was right. Before the Rangers recalled him Friday, Garand had served as the Wolf Pack’s goaltender 165 times.
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.
Don’t close the curtain on “Mean” Joe Greene.
The Knicks are on a five-game winning streak and flooded with concerns.
