#3 Walker Little, OT, Stanford
A former five-star recruit, Little became the first true freshman since 2000 to start at left tackle for Stanford and despite playing in just nine games he received Freshman All-American honors by ESPN before becoming a full-time starter at left tackle last season and immediately being named to the All-Pac 12 first team.
The 6’7” giant might not just blow guys off the ball, but he can torque bodies and get in front of defenders, who are forced to go through him. He looks to come off combo-blocks quickly and consistently gets his hands on smaller guys at the second level. Little’s jump off the snap is outstanding and he is just awaiting edge rushers.
Even when you think the defender has an angle, the Cardinal tackle seems to always recover with his length and guide him past the arc. He’s really tough to get away from once he puts his mitts on somebody and seems to have perfected the art of holding without being flagged for it. However, I think he has to do a little better job at protecting his chest and keeping that post-leg ready to counter inside moves.
