Fuaga stands 6-6, 332 pounds with a massive wingspan. He rarely allowed a sack during his collegiate career and one of the most dependable players at the line of scrimmage within the Power Five ranks. With Aaron Rodgers returning next season in a full capacity, the Jets could tap one of these top-end tackle prospects for immediate aid up front. We’ve seen Fuaga inside the top 20 several times this month.
Mims, a preseason All-SEC First Team selection at right tackle, played in seven games this season after an ankle injury in the conference opener against South Carolina forced him to miss six games and required surgery. Dawgs247 reported that Mims returned to the lineup against Ole Miss but re-injured his ankle early in the SEC Championship Game loss to Alabama, leaving the game in the first half and forcing Georgia to re-shuffle its offensive line. Injuries are partly to blame for the first-round slide.
A dependable offensive tackle throughout his two-year stint at Oklahoma after coming over from TCU, Guyton appeared in 19 games making 14 starts at right tackle for the Sooners. Guyton, who more than held his own at the Senior Bowl last week, finished the 2023 season playing 663 total snaps, according to Pro Football Focus, and did not allow a sack across 335 pass-blocking opportunities.
