It's easy to overlook the FCS prospects, particularly this high in the NFL Draft. Still, <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/grey-zabel/17679">Grey Zabel</a> has proven to be one of the best available offensive linemen in this year's class and could be called before the end of the opening night. 
Zabel spent the past five years protecting quarterbacks for the North Dakota State Bisons as an offensive tackle. Measuring at 6'6" and checking in at 305 lbs, he has the size to be an imposing lineman for years to come. Altogether, he's one of the best, compensating for his shorter arms with explosive and indefensible technique. 
Zabel tended to get beat inside by quicker edge rushers. Under the proper tutelage, he'll be able to make those adjustments and be a stalwart on an NFL O-line for years to come.

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/armand-membou/32729">Armand Membou</a> is one of the heftiest linemen available in the 2025 NFL Draft. Checking in at 6'4" and 332 lbs, Membou withstood the toughest challenges in the SEC. He's ready to make the jump to the NFL and ranks as one of the best tackles on the board. 
The junior has many pro qualities. Membou is explosive with his feet and quick with his hands, using his flexibility to his advantage on the edge and outside. Moreover, he's more than capable as a lead blocker in the ground game and uses his leverage better than most. 
If Membou can improve his endurance without compromising his other traits, he could become a top-tier tackle for whoever drafts him.

A knee injury de-railed <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/josh-simmons/38050">Josh Simmons</a>' senior season, but it didn't compromise his draft stock. The offensive tackle has positioned himself as one of the premier offensive linemen available in the draft, and it won't be long before he hears his name called in Green Bay.
After spending the first few seasons of his career with the San Diego Aztecs, Simmons spent the last two with the Ohio State Buckeyes. Over that time, he established himself as one of the sturdiest members of the offensive line. The California native moves effortlessly on the line, ranking as an elite blocker in the run and pass games. 
Simmons' explosiveness is his most promising trait, but he's also proven his balance and athletic ability are virtually unmatchable. Whichever team drafts Simmons has a foundational piece on the line.

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/kelvin-banks/41196">Kelvin Banks Jr.</a> is the premier pass blocker in the 2025 NFL Draft, and many teams could see him as the top offensive lineman. While he's listed as a tackle, Banks could also line up as a guard in the NFL. 
The Texas Longhorns standout built an impressive following in his junior season. Banks took home the Outland Trophy as the best interior lineman, the Jacobs Blocking Trophy as the SEC's best blocker, and the Lombardi Award, embodying the values and characteristics of Vince Lombardi. All of that reflected his sheer athleticism, explosive foot speed, and relentless blocking abilities. 
Banks will be the cornerstone of an NFL offensive line for years to come. He's got All-Pro potential, and one lucky team will try to unlock it.

The edge for top offensive lineman in the 2025 NFL Draft goes to <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/will-campbell/51436">Will Campbell</a>. A consensus All-American and Jacobs Blocking Trophy recipient, Campbell will be one of the first names called at Lambeau Field. 
Campbell does everything at an elite level. He's a premier pass blocker but also has the technical ability to get out front as a lead blocker in the ground game. Moreover, Campbell is one of the quickest linemen in the draft and delivers his blocks with unmatched power. 
Since Day 1, Campbell has cemented his position as an NFL-caliber offensive tackle. He started as a true freshman for the LSU Tigers and was fundamental in helping the Tigers re-assert themselves as an SEC contender. That pedigree follows him to the NFL, where Campbell is expected to make an even bigger impact.
