Stanford’s Walker Little is the top offensive tackle

This is one I have a bit of a problem with. That’s not to say Little isn’t a good-looking prospect with first-round upside, but his tape through his first two seasons as a starter doesn’t scream top-10 pick and he needs to develop his game quite a bit before he can be crowned as the premier offensive lineman in next year’s class.

We touched on Little’s game here.

If Little takes a step forward in his development in 2019, he could easily justify this ranking and emerge as a top-five pick in 2020. But he’s a long way from that designation and should be ranked behind Georgia’s Andrew Thomas at the start of the college football season.
