2025 Senior Bowl offensive linemen to Watch: Josh Conerly Jr., Armand Membou among a talented group trying to boost their draft stock

Armand Membou, Missouri

Missouri's starting right tackle Armand Membou was often knocked for being on the shorter side, but his athleticism and footwork stands out on film. He quickly recovers and rarely finds himself out of position, and his arm length more than makes up for any lack of height that he might have. Watch for his fluid athleticism to stand out.

Aireontae Ersery, Minnesota

Aireontae Ersery is a big mauler of an offensive lineman that shut down future top-5 draft pick Abdul Carter. At 6'6" 330 lbs, he has the big boy frame to play at the next level. Ersery plays with a good base and great awareness, but sometimes plays a bit too tall. That can be coached. There will be a lot of fans of his in NFL circles. 

Jonah Savaiinaea, Arizona

Jonah Savaiinaea is being talked about as a potential guard candidate, but his official measurements before the Senior Bowl have him standing 6'3" 339 lbs with 34 5/8" arms. That screams tackle. Regardless of where NFL teams want to play him, Savaiinaea plays with a ton of violence and motor, and his power is undeniable. He's a nasty lineman.

Marcus Mbow, Purdue

There's not a ton going right for Purdue, but Marcus Mbow, their starting right tackle, was definitely a bright spot this season. He might be the quickest offensive lineman in this year's class, and he also has a knack for getting defenders on the ground with a lethal snatch-trap. That said, Mbow doesn't have the sturdiest of bases, something that will be seen as a detractor. His movement skills have an opportunity to stand out in Mobile.

Emery Jones Jr., LSU

Entering the 2024 college football season, LSU was discussed as having the best offensive tackle duo in the country with Will Campbell on one side and Emery Jones on the other. Jones saw his draft stock dip a bit, but is still firmly being considered an early Day 2 pick with the potential to sneak into the back of the first with a good pre-draft process. Jones flashes good hand usage, and plays with the nastiness that the NFL loves, but at times he looks unpolished, gets off his base, and misses the mark with his timing and awareness. There will surely be an NFL team that sees his raw strength and aggressiveness as something they can work with, though, and with a good OL coach, he could flourish at the next level. 

Ozzy Trapilo, Boston College

Ozzy Trapilo is a very large human at 6'8" 315 lbs. Sometimes the taller offensive linemen can struggle with getting out-leveraged, but that doesn't appear to be a weakness for the Boston College product, who plays with good bend and a low base. Trapilo's calling card is his smoothness, always looking in control and quiet — exactly what a quarterback wants in front of him. He can quickly anchor, and his size makes it a challenge for pass rushers to claim the edge. He's quiet, consistent, reliable, and patient. He could be in store for a big rise heading to the NFL Draft.
