The senior crop of offensive tackles for the 2012 NFL Draft is a lacking one. Each of the top three seniors – Mike Adams, Matt Reynolds and Nate Potter – may be right side candidates at the next level. Florida State's Andrew Datko may in fact end up at the top of this list, so long as he can stay healthy.
Two players are also noticeably missing from the tackle rankings. That would be Iowa State's Kelechi Osemele and Georgia's Kordy Glenn. Both project to guard in the NFL.
The real stars of the offensive tackle group are juniors. Jonathan Martin of Stanford and Matt Kalill of USC both have the look of being top 10 talents. Of course, they'd have to come out here.

| 7. Al Netter | 6'6, 300 pounds | OT | Northwestern |
| 8. Jermarcus Hardrick | 6'7, 320 pounds | OT | Nebraska |
| 9. Elvis Fisher | 6'5, 295 pounds | OT | Missouri |
| 10. Matt McCants | 6'7, 295 pounds | OT | UAB |

Go Yoshi!
I wonder if he’ll win the starting spot now that he’s put more work into getting in shape.
Go Suns, Packers, Jays, and Huskers!

I hope Kalil and Martin come out
Hopefully the field will be deep enough for the Leos to get some help
Datko
Homebody has two new shoulders, so obviously health is going to be a concern. If he does stay healthy, where do you see him going?
