There’s never a bad time to scout offensive line talent. Here are twenty of the NCAA’s best who should all find their way onto the Philadelphia Eagles draft board.

You can argue that the Philadelphia Eagles have three potential Pro Football Hall of Fame candidates on the roster right now. Jason Peters, without a shadow of a doubt, will be the next Eagle to be enshrined in Canton, Ohio. Then, there’s Lane Johnson and Jason Kelce.

Johnson’s arguably crafting a Hall of Fame resume of his own. Kelce may never be enshrined in Canton, but he’s become one of the best centers of his time. There’s just one thing. How many centers and right tackles are the voters going to let in?

With so many great players being noticed in this time frame, and with this being the era of social media, it’s hard to imagine three offensive linemen from the same team being voted to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It isn’t impossible. It’s just unlikely.

In addition to Peters, Johnson and Kelce, you have Brandon Brooks, Chance Warmack, Stefen Wisniewski, Matt Pryor, Isaac Seumalo, and Halapoulivaati Vaitai, better known as ‘Big V’ on the roster.

Tyreek Burwell, Anthony Fabiano, and Kaleb Johnson are signed to future/ reserve contracts. Jordan Mailata finished last season on the team’s IR (injured reserve) but will have a legitimate chance to make the roster in 2019.

There’s never a bad time to scout offensive line talent. Here are 20 offensive linemen Philly may want to place on the draft board.
