The presence of big men on the Notre Dame offensive line have been a staple for the school in recent seasons. That’s led to a host of high draft picks that have subsequently gone on to make their mark in the NFL. For the 2019 season, one of the Irish players who fits neatly into that category is guard Tommy Kraemer.
Standing at 6-foot-6 and 320 pounds, Kraemer has the athletic versatility to have seen playing time at both tackle and guard during his first two seasons on the field for Notre Dame. His shift to right guard last year partially helped deliver on the expectations when he first arrived in 2016 and serve as the reason why he’s an All-American candidate this year.
