NFL Draft: Greg Gabriel's top 4 OT prospects
Offense tackle has always been a premier position on any football team, with left tackle being one of the most important positions in any given draft. Not long ago there were almost always three to four tackles selected in the top 15 annually.
In 2015 and 2016, two tackles went in the top 10 and five were selected in the first round. Last season, that changed, as no tackles were selected in the top 10 and only two — Garett Bolles, No 20 overall to the Denver Broncos, and Ryan Ramczyk, 32nd overall to the New Orleans Saints —went in the first round.
