Consensus board vs. draft day: the full IOL class, charted.
The Steal
Marcus Mbow was ranked IOL4 on the consensus board (#63 overall) but lasted until pick 154, where the New York Giants took him in Round 5. A 91-spot fall, the largest gap between consensus and draft day of any IOL in the class. Behind him, Miles Frazier (+56) and Jonah Monheim (+34) also outlasted their rankings.
The Conviction Pick
The Las Vegas Raiders took Caleb Rogers at pick 98, 76 spots ahead of his #174 consensus rank. That's the league's strongest disagreement with the public board at the position. Teams showed similar conviction on Dylan Fairchild (47 spots) and Drew Kendall (32 spots).
The Cliff
After Caleb Rogers went at pick 98, the next IOL didn't come off the board for 56 picks. That's the sharpest drop in the class.
The Spend
Teams spent 18 picks on IOL, 4 of them in the first two rounds. That's below the position's average of 20.9 since 2018.
The Bet
The Seattle Seahawks spent more draft capital on IOL than any other club: picks 18 and 192, 28% of their total draft investment.
The One Who Slipped
Seth McLaughlin, ranked #166 on the consensus board, went undrafted through all 257 picks.
