Ezra Cleveland was a tackle for Boise State, but Pro Football Focus picked Cleveland to star elsewhere on the offensive line.
Cleveland was the starting left guard in PFF’s list of Vikings starters for 2020. A lot of people, myself included, thought Cleveland could possibly start at left tackle, with Riley Reiff moving to guard.
Here’s what Minnesota general manager Rick Spielman said after Cleveland was drafted by the team:
“I talked to our coaches, and they see him as being a possible position flexibility guy, a left tackle, right tackle, even a potential guard if we need to, so we’ll figure that out.”
So it’s not crazy to think that Cleveland could start at left guard for the Vikings in 2020.
Pro Football Focus also went with an interesting choice on the defensive line. The outlet predicted that James Lynch will start at defensive tackle for the Vikings. Lynch, a defensive lineman out of Baylor, was drafted by the Vikings in fourth round.
PFF also thought cornerback Cameron Dantzler would start for the Vikings. However, it listed Holton Hill as a name to watch.
