5. Josh Sitton (2008-14)

The Green Bay Packers selected Central Florida offensive tackle Josh Sitton in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL Draft and have watched him blossom into one of the top guards in the league.

After a year as a backup, Sitton was installed at right guard in 2009 and started there for four seasons, earning a Pro Bowl bid in 2012.

Moved to left guard in 2013, Sitton returned to the Pro Bowl at a second line position in 2014.

Pro Football Focus has ranked Sitton among the top guards in the NFL since he moved into the lineup. He was eighth-best in 2009, second in 2010, fifth in 2011, sixth in 2012, second in 2013 and ranked fourth last season.

He has played in 105 games, starting 96, in his seven seasons with the Pack.
