Round 6, Pick No. 182 - Tanor Bortolini (IOL) Minnesota
Bortolini played four of the five offensive line positions in college. That versatility alone should make him a pretty valuable commodity. But his combine performance will have made him even more desirable.
He ran the fastest 40-yard dash of any offensive lineman. Bortolini clocked a 4.94 second time. He also broke Jason Kelce’s record for the three cone test. According to NextGen, he scored a maximum athleticism score of 99, becoming just the interior lineman to do that in the last 21 years!

Round 7, Pick No. 229 - Tylan Grable (OT) UCF
On the topic of athletic offensive linemen, Grable scored a 97 out of 99 when it comes to athleticism—the 6 feet 5 inches tall, 306 lb. Grable ran a 4.99 40-yard dash like Bortolini. Bur Grable also recorded a 36.5” vertical jump and a 9”.9" broad jump.
If you’re going to have an athletic quarterback, then you’re going to need an athletic line ahead of him.
Out of all the freak athletes in this tackle group, Tylan Grable is the one dominating the testing portion.
