NFL Trade Rumors
The Super Bowl is on Sunday and in less than a month, the NFL will descend on Indianapolis for the Combine. It’s fair to say draft season is starting to heat up, and with that, I’ve been doing final film evaluations and updating my position rankings for the 2025 NFL Draft.
Finally, we have the last position I’ve yet to update: interior offensive line. I’m lumping both guards and centers into this list, and for now, only evaluating players who played on the interior in college. My final rankings will project players who will likely move from college tackle to NFL guard or center, but these are just the prospects listed on the interior at their respective schools.
If you want to see how these rankings compare to how I ranked this class over the summer, check out the link below. Additionally, my other updated rankings can be found below as well. As always, stay tuned for more 2025 draft content, as I’ll be looking to update all my position rankings over the next few weeks.

He has both the awareness and the agility to connect on blocks in the open field, paving the way for the runner behind him. In a phone booth, Booker has the power and leg drive to move people off the line, making him ideally suited for a variety of schemes.
In pass protection, Booker has a strong anchor and expert hand usage. There isn’t a more refined hand fighter in this class — Booker masterfully keeps his chest clean with tight punches that redirect rushers off the snap. He plays with timing and quickness, never afraid to reset and hold his ground. He plays under control and with a competitive fire that will endear him to his teammates.
If there’s one thing Booker could work on, it’s sustaining blocks. He has a natural disadvantage being on the taller side for a guard,...
