“Brian O’Neill – Pittsburgh Some may want to put UCLA’s Kolton Miller at this spot, and while he may be a worthy candidate, I still see a raw and physically underdeveloped prospect. Miller is very tall, but he has a narrow frame and still needs to add strength and bulk. From an athletic point of view, though, he is just what we look for. O’Neill is a former tight end who was moved to tackle his redshirt freshman year. At nearly 6-foot-7 with 34 1/8” arms, he has the height and length we look for at tackle. He weighed in at 297 at the combine, so O’Neill needs to add 10-15 pounds, which shouldn’t be a problem at all with his frame. O’Neill ran the 40 in 4.82, as well as posting a 7.14-second 3-cone drill — which is rare for a big guy. He is a strong, powerful and aggressive blocker, consistently looking to finish in the run game and mirroring very well in pass protection. On the down side, O’Neill needs to improve his anchor. But relative to his OT peers in this class, O’Neil may have the highest ceiling, and because of that he will be drafted high.”
