Offensive line: 8

David DeCastro

Alejandro Villanueva

Maurkice Pouncey

Matt Feiler

Zack Banner

Chukwuma Okorafor

Stefen Wisniewski

Kevin Dotson (R)

This is pretty typical for the offensive line, and this could end up being the easiest positional group of all to predict. Though the starting five has had a shakeup with the retirement of Ramon Foster this offseason, this group doesn’t seem very hard to predict.

David DeCastro, Maurkice Pouncey, Alejandro Villanueva, and Matt Feiler are all former starters and locks to make the team in 2020. Meanwhile, Chukwuma Okorafor and Zack Banner should round out the offensive tackle position.

Stefen Wisniewski was brought in as a versatile depth piece along the interior offensive line this offseason, and Kevin Dotson has a great chance to make the team as a 4th round rookie this year. He should take the final roster spot on the offensive line.
