When the competition is having OL drafted in the 1st rd and you compete against them for recruits, it would be nice to say we're a good launching pad to the NFL for OL.


I can't disagree, but if you look at our "competition", since 2005 (aside from Alabama which has had 4 O-Linemen drafted in the 1st round since 2009), six SEC schools have had O-Linemen drafted in the 1st round: Ole Miss (2); Auburn (1); Vandy (1); Florida (2); & Texas A&M (1).

Kyle Williams was only a 5th round pick in 2006, but wound up being one of the highest paid O Linemen in the NFL. We haven't had a lot of 1st rounders over the years, but we have had put some good O-Line players in the pro's. More would help!
