2021 NFL DRAFT: Offensive linemen by the numbers

04/23/2021

DB+

Experience isn’t always the first thing to be mentioned when reading over an offensive lineman’s scouting report. Footwork, hand placement, anchor and demeanor are some traits that usually paint the picture of what constitutes a top-tier trench player. Not dismissing the value of physical attributes, but experience is an invaluable characteristic, as it isn’t something that can be coached or learned over the span of a mini camp.

Listed below is each offensive lineman that is in the realm of being selected in the 2021 NFL Draft. Broken into categories of starts and total games, the lists below provide numerical data of the experience of each player.

Note: Some players sat out the 2020 college football season which will hinder their experience numbers. Also, in parenthesis is the school where the player finished their college career; starts from transfer schools are accounted for in the final numbers — junior college numbers are not included.
