1. Andrew Thomas, Georgia

Andrew Thomas has been in the national spotlight for a long time. He was a five-star prospect and top 50 recruit coming out of high school and immediately started for the George Bulldogs, earning Freshman All-American honors. He went on to earn Second-Team Associated Press All-American and First-Team All-SEC honors in 2018 before making the First-Team Associated Press All-American and First-Team All-SEC in 2019.

Thanks to his pedigree, Thomas is the least likely offensive tackle to still be available when the Packers come on board at no. 30. He has experience playing both right and left tackle in college-something that could give him a head start on earning the starting right tackle job in 2020.

Speaking of getting head starts, unlike the other two guys on this list, Thomas is much less of a project. Instead, he possesses the tools to be a Day 1 starter; something Aaron Rodgers would like very much.
