It was a bad year for the offensive line in 2016 and that’s putting it lightly. They were porous against pass rushers and couldn’t open any holes in the run game. Graduation and the NFL draft came calling for a few players including former UCLA Football LT Connor McDermott whom many said was the best player on this offensive line last year.
Now in 2016 I saw a left tackle that struggled with power and speed. He was lighter in the pants and while he had athleticism he was beaten more than a few times on the season.
