The 2025 NFL Scouting Combine is underway, with players beginning drills on Thursday. A full breakdown of the week’s schedule can be found here.
Offensive linemen get the stage to themselves on Sunday. Here’s a look at 10 tackles worth knowing at the combine in Indianapolis.
Tackles
Texas left tackle Kelvin Banks Jr.: Once considered a potential top-10 pick, Banks’ stock has declined in recent weeks. Measuring 6-foot-4 at Texas, he’d be short for a tackle. But his production is there. Per NFL.com’s Combine IQ (CIQ), he has the fifth-highest production score among combine participants at tackle. According to Pro Football Focus (PFF), he allowed 10 total pressures (one sack) in 515 pass-rush opportunities in 2024.
Other than his height, Banks’ arm measurements will be worth monitoring on Saturday. Per CIQ, 33 inches is the baseline for NFL tackle prospects.
LSU left tackle Will Campbell: Campbell has the highest overall score (85) in CIQ entering Sunday’s drills. The 6-foot-6 product could clinch his spot as the No. 1 tackle prospect in this year’s class with a strong performance in two key drills. Per CIQ, the 40-yard dash and three-cone are most important. Anything under 5.25 seconds in the 40 is considered good, while a sub-5 is elite. In the three-cone, the marker is 7.75s (good) and 7.4s (elite).
Oregon left tackle Josh Conerly Jr.: At 6-foot-4, Conerly, like Banks, might need to move inside in the pros. Per PFF data, in three seasons at Oregon, Connerly allowed 26 total pressures and two sacks in 1,032 pass-rush opportunities.
Minnesota left tackle Aireontae Ersery: The 6-foot-5, 339-pound lineman would be a strong fit in Tennessee, wrote NFL Titans reporter Turron Davenport on Feb. 24. Ersery might be the top pick of Day 2 if he aces the combine.
William & Mary left tackle Charles Grant: An injury forced Grant to miss the Senior Bowl, making this one of the few times the 6-foot-4 FCS product will get an in-person look from draft scouts.
Missouri right tackle Armand Membou: Another potentially undersized prospect at 6-foot-3, size was no problem for Membou in 2024 at Missouri. Per PFF data, Membou allowed nine total pressures (and zero sacks) in 392 pass-rush opportunities.
West Virginia left tackle Wyatt Milum: The 6-foot-6 veteran had 43 career starts at West Virginia, and PFF credits him with allowing zero sacks from 2022-24.
Arizona right tackle Jonah Savaiinaea: A three-year starter, the 6-foot-5 Savaiinaea has positional versatility, playing snaps at left tackle (345), right guard (985) and right tackle (1,057) during his Wildcats career. (h/t PFF)
Boston College right tackle Ozzy Trapilo: Size isn’t an issue for the mammoth 6-foot-8 Trapilo. His ability to move at a pro level in the 40 and three-cone will dictate where he lands in April’s draft.
North Dakota State left tackle Grey Zabel: Another buzz-worthy FCS prospect, Zabel could show enough talent to be a Day 1 pick. Per PFF, the 6-foot-6 FCS star played every line position for the Bison, allowing four sacks in 1,071 career pass-rush opportunities.
