Rasheed Walker (Offensive Tackle)

Rasheed Walker was arguably Penn State’s best offensive lineman last season. He went somewhat unnoticed, because offensive linemen usually don’t get their name called unless it’s for something negative.

The 6’6 313 pound redshirt sophomore has gained recognition from NFL scouts and even showed up on a couple first round mock drafts this off-season.

Walker is probably Penn State’s best pass protection lineman and he will only get better as he works with new offensive line coach Phil Trautwein, who has built quite the reputation from his tenure at Boston College.

Sean Clifford can sleep well at night knowing his blind-side is properly protected.
