Candidates:

All prospects are ranked as Top 100 available in the 2018 draft, or should be drafted by round three. (Information from CBS Sports and NFL Draft Scout)

Tackles- No matter what happens with Decker or Wagner, the need for a third tackle is obvious.

Martinas Rankin, Mississippi State, Sr, 6-5, 305

Mitch Hyatt, Clemson, Jr, 6-5, 295

Orlando Brown, Oklahoma, Jr, 6-8, 360

Trey Adams, Washington, Jr, 6-8, 320

Interior linemen- We haven’t been the best on the inside, either. Graham Glasgow and T.J. Lang have been inconsistent or hurt. Backup guard/ tackle, Joe Dahl is on the injured-reserve list, too.

Quenton Nelson, Notre Dame, Sr, 6-5, 329

Tyrone Crowder, Clemson, Sr, 6-2, 340

Martez Ivey, Florida, Jr, 6-5, 305

Damian Prince, Maryland, Jr, 6-3, 315
