Prince Tega Wanogho presents risk, but upside in 2020 NFL Draft
By Cory Kinnan
Wanogho’s strengths
There is no doubt about it: Prince Tega Wanogho has all of the tools to be a successful offensive tackle at the next level, having been born with all of the size and length in the world. He is a versatile player as well, as Auburn their left and right tackles in certain scenarios, so he has experience playing on both sides of the line.
On top of his athleticism, his Honor Roll status in the classroom translates to the field as well; it is evident that Wanogho is well aware of his responsibilities on a play-by-play basis, and plays with a cerebral savvy for the Tigers. He flashes on film with that athleticism and brilliance, but struggles to put it all together on a consistent basis.
When his tools are on full display for the best, Wanogho is able to stonewall edge rushers, often showing elite footwork to hang with pass rushers, sometimes five yards into the backfield. One thing that cannot be overlooked when discussing Wanogho, and maybe most importantly: he shows improvement week in and week out (especially in the run game).
After looking at Wanogho’s strengths, we now turn to the parts of his game that he must improve upon as he continues his path towards the 2020 NFL Draft.
