Las Vegas Raiders Summer Scouting: OT Rankings

I broke down the 2027 scouting classes in my early summer scouting series, and the room has a ton of potential with a long list of potential standout players. I broke down the offense and defense in articles and I suggest reading those for a broad aspect of the room. The Raiders have Kolton Miller, DJ Glaze, and Charles Grant at tackle, but the NFL changes quickly and with Miller pushing over 30 there’s a chance he may be a trade candidate after 2026 if Las Vegas wants to get younger. Additionally,

2026 is likely a make it or break it season for DJ Glaze, who will need to solidify himself as a real right tackle in the NFL, though at only 24 years old he should have a strong chance and may convert to G as well. Charles Grant is in store for some work in 2026 in place of injuries, or pushing out DJ Glaze, and should be a top option for the OL in 2027.

These rankings are extremely early, and they will evolve over not only the summer but the next 8-10 months throughout the season, and into draft season. Some lists will feature 10, 15, 20, or more ranked prospects but I’ll include others on the list below to note.

---

1. Jordan Seaton, LSU- 6’5/330, Jr
   • Consensus first overall tackle, spent first two seasons at Colorado before transferring to LSU. True LT, 5 sacks, 44 pressures allowed in his career with a 0.5% pressure rate in 2025. Anchors extremely well, light on his feet, shows a ton of raw natural power. Seaton fires off the ball, he’s able to get into space quickly, has incredible hip flexibility, and he drives defenders through the ground. As a run blocker, Seaton is able to turn and run in space, he’ll identify second and third level targets, and knock them with his blend of raw power and size to pair with athleticism. He’ll need to improve the hand combat, and become stronger in his grip strength but the chance to be a franchise top 5-8 tackle in the NFL is real.
2. Trevor Lauck, Iowa – 6’5/310, R-So
   • Lauck was arguably the best lineman for Iowa last year, on a unit that saw four NFL draft picks. A LT, Lauck has some experience working at RT as well but he was a standout on the left side. He moves incredibly well, has great knee, ankle, and hip bend, and Lauck drives off the ball. His kickstep is extremely fluid, he’ll sit low and fire with his lower body to pair his strength and natural movement abilities together to drive defenders backwards. Lauck allowed just 2 hits and 5 pressures in his first season as a starter, and he’ll improve likely over the next year. I’d like to see Lauck do a bit better in the pass game sealing the outside corner, and there’s time’s hell overextend as well, but the hand combat skills pop immediately. A true athlete, Lauck may push for the first tackle ranking quickly.
3. Melvin Siani, Texas – 6’6/302, Jr
   • Siani is personally my favorite of the big three for Texas (Siani, Goosby, and Baker). The former Temple standout allowed 0 sacks, 3 hits, and 11 pressures in 2025 at Wake Forest, and showed the quick transition from the AAC to ACC, and now the SEC. He’s powerful, with a ton of raw natural strength, and he shows a ton of hand power, grip strength, and pure upper body abilility. The ceiling may be limited, as Siani is very refined as is, and he wins a lot with consistency, size, power, and athleticism. Siani moves well, he fires off the ball, has a ton of lower body movement skills, and in space he’s a dangerous threat to run over defenders in the run game. Siani moves well in his kickstep, he’s shown great core strength, and while he’ll need to improve giving up the outside hip to speed rushers, there’s a good shot Siani can be a franchise tackle on either side.
4. Carter Smith, Indiana – 6’5/308, R-Sr
   • Smith saw a nice breakout season in 2025 allowing 2 sacks, a hit, and 11 pressures for the Hoosiers, and he returned in 2026 instead of declaring for the NFL Draft. Smith has great length, he’s a fluid mover, and he’s pretty developed into his early potential at nearly 24. Smith shows a ton of raw athleticism, good strength, and he moves well. The footwork is exceptional, and very NFL ready, along with high level knowledge at offensive tackle. Smith will fire off the ball, his kickstep is good, and he shows a ton of natural understanding of the tackle position. Smith stays low, has fluid hips, he sinks well, gets to the outside, and in the run game can climb to the second level quick. He may move to guard with average length, but Smith will likely slot in as a longterm offensive line starter, but the ceiling is a little limited.
5. Trevor Goosby, Texas – 6’7/315, R-Jr
   • Goosby is the consensus 2nd tackle, I’m slightly lower and I almost had him even in the 7-8 range. Goosby almost declared after the 2025 season but returned and he needed to work on a few things, largely due to limited snaps. He’s a long, powerful tackle but there’s some mobility concerns with inconsistent hip flexibility, and he doesn’t move his entire body in unison at times, specifically in the lower half. Goosby does have quick feet, he can lean at times, but he’s a far better mover forward than backwards (run blocker). He shows good instincts, his hands are powerful, but he does struggle to the outside at times vs quicker rushers. There’s a huge ceiling for Goosby, but right now there’s a lot of inconsistencies, and I’d like to see him tap into his athleticism moving forward more often as a pass protector where things do struggle.
6. Jacarrius Peak, South Carolina – 6’4/300, R-Jr
   • Peak has longer length than expected, he’s an exceptional mover in space, fires off the ball quickly, and Peak is a freak athlete at the position as well. He’s a powerful player, uses his full body consistently, and Peak combines his power and athleticism to win consistently. Peak shows great lower body agility, sinks his hips well, and the kickstep is fluid. After transferring from NC State, where he allowed just 7 sacks and 46 pressures across the last three seasons (1219 PBLK attempts), Peak suffered a significant lower body injury playing basketball so it will be a question how much the injury affects his athleticism.
7. Greg Johnson, Minnesota – 6’6/325, Sr
8. Blake Frazier, Michigan – 6’6/295, Jr
   • Frazier is someone to keep an eye on, and there’s a real world he goes inside the top 10 if he has the season many think he can. He’s an exceptional athlete, moves extremely well in his lower body, and Fraizer has natural hip/ankle flexibility. The 20 year old moves his lower body in unision, has exceptional strength in the lower half as well, with good hand strength as well. He is able to turn his hips, sink, and move off the line of scrimmage quickly, while also having a nice low kickstep to pair with elite length. A former TE, Frazier has immense upside, but the technique is very raw, he’ll need to get stronger in the upper half, improve his hand combat skills, and also learn the position more, but the sky is the limit. Fraizer played 244 PBLK snaps last year allowing 4 sacks and 17 pressures, but he has the ability to potentially develop into a similar player as Joe Alt, who was also a former TE.
9. Lance Heard, Kentucky – 6’6/330, R-Jr
10. PJ Williams, SMU – 6’5/315, R-Jr
11. Anthony Donkoh, Penn State – 6’6/325, R-So
    • Donkoh is a G/T hybrid, but I think he’ll be best at tackle in the NFL instead of kicking into guard. Donkoh is an absurd athlete, as many Penn State offensive lineman are. He spent most of 2025 working at RG, but has experience at right tackle as well in 2024, where he was better. Donkoh has a ton of natural raw athleticism, he’s shown good lower body agility, fluid hips, and a ton of movement in space and off the line of scrimmage. Donkoh pairs the lower body movement skills with good power, his grip strength is good, but he’ll need to improve the actual hand combat technique. Donkoh has the potential to rise into the first or second round conversations, with natural size, length, and agility.
12. Drew Azzopardi, Washington – 6’7/315, Sr
13. Niki Prongos, Stanford – 6’7/315, Sr
14. Xavier Chaplin, Florida State – 6’7/345, Sr

Other Names:

• McKale Boley, Virginia – Highly athletic, 6’5/315, good raw power. Ton of upside
• Andrew Sprague, Michigan – Limited snaps, big kid, moves extremely well at 6’8/315
• Kolt Dieterich, Washington – Veteran, limited ceiling, solid swing T option
• Ben Murawski, Michigan State – Uconn Standout, likely moving to G in the NFL. Good mover
• Desmeal Leigh, Youngstown State – FCS standout, will need a big year and lot of athletic testing to pop, reminds me of a bigger Charles Grant at 6’7, 325
• Jimarion McCrimon, NC State
• Charles Jagusah, Notre Dame – Injuries, healthy and likely starter for ND at RG or RT. Athletic, powerful
• Ryan Baer, Pitt
• Leon Bell, Colorado
