Joshua Garnett (OL), Stanford
6’4” | 312 lbs.
Selection:
1st round, 28th overall by San Francisco 49ers
Scouting Report:
"Thick, powerful guard who can gain an early advantage in the rep and finish with authority. Garnett looks to establish a new line of scrimmage on every running play and is a great fit for a team looking to impose their will between the tackles. While he's a plus run blocker, his pass protection issues should not be taken lightly and will have to be vetted with offensive line coaches to make sure they are correctable issues. Garnett should be an early round pick who can come in and start right away." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
