The 2025 NFL Draft class is starting to take shape, and that means we’re getting a clearer picture of some of the top prospects and the position groups with the most depth.
The running back, tight end and offensive tackle positions seem to be the deepest and strongest on the offensive side of the ball. On defense, the edge defender group is as deep as we’ve seen in several years, dominating the projected top 50. There are also more impact defensive backs this year than a year ago, with plenty of options on all three days of the draft, specifically on Days 2 and 3.
Here are PFF's top interior offensive linemen in the 2025 NFL Draft, along with some initial scouting notes courtesy of lead draft analyst Trevor Sikkema.

IOL1. Tyler Booker, Alabama
Big board rank: 48
Booker has some foot speed and balance issues that keep him from being a blue-chip prospect, but there is still a lot to like as a powerful, well-built, competitive and high football IQ guard prospect for a man/gap heavy run scheme.
IOL2. Tate Ratledge, Georgia
Big board rank: 89
Ratledge isn't the most dynamic athlete, but his solid pass-blocking technique and downhill power in the run game give him a chance to be a starter in the NFL.
IOL3. Jared Wilson, Georgia
Big board rank: 100
Wilson may be just a one-year starter, but he has the movement skills to be a starting center in the NFL if he can continue to improve his IQ and anticipation with more snaps.
IOL4. Willie Lampkin, North Carolina
Big board rank: 127
Lampkin's size is certainly concerning and could relegate him back to center, where he played just one game over the past two seasons. His technique and determination should give him a chance to prove his worth in the NFL with five years of outstanding college tape under his belt.
IOL5. Luke Kandra, Cincinnati
Big board rank: 149
Kandra's athleticism and measured approach to the game give him the floor of a solid zone scheme backup and an average starter’s ceiling. The end result will depend on his ability to play with better pad level and flexibility.
