2. David Edwards, Offensive line

David Edwards is the third offensive lineman in a row and the last on this list. I promise. He also has the highest potential of any of the lineman and could leave Wisconsin a year early to enter the draft.

Edwards plays tackle for the Badgers and will likely stick there at the next level as well. He’s solid in both pass protection and run blocking, making him very attractive to NFL teams.

He’s a huge and powerful guy who easily pushes his man off the line of scrimmage. At 6-foot-7 and 315 pounds, he has ideal height and weight for a right tackle as well. although he may never be good enough to flip sides of the field, he should make a nice home for himself on the right side.
