4. Will Hernandez, OG, UTEP

Will Hernandez was one of the most dominant players I watched at the 2018 Senior Bowl, and he confirmed a lot of things we saw on tape with his performance at the Scouting Combine.

At 6-foot-2, 327 pounds, Hernandez showed off incredible athletic ability and strength, posting the fastest 10-yard split for a guard and one of the best 40-yard dash times on a pound-for-pound at 5.14 and a whopping 37 bench reps at 225 pounds.

Oh, and he can move like this:

Over the course of the past month to two months, I can’t think of any player that has proven himself more worthy of a first round selection that was previously being talked about as a possible day two pick.

Hernandez looks like a Pro Bowl level guard already.
