Shane Lemieux, IOL, Oregon
Shane Lemieux has been a four-year starter at the left guard position at Oregon and was named a first-team All-American for his play in 2019. He has an impressive combination of athleticism and physicality up front, showing smooth movement skills and the ability to manhandle opposing defenders at the line of scrimmage.
Lemieux gets off of the ball quickly and shows great overall hand usage. He is a strong run blocker at the left guard position and an even better pass protector. A rock-solid prospect who should be able to come in and compete for a starting spot right away, Lemieux will likely come off of the board on the second day of the 2020 NFL Draft.
Jake Hason, IOL, Oregon
Jake Hanson has started alongside Lemieux as the starting center for the Ducks the last four seasons. He has not piled up as many accolades as Lemieux, but he is a smart and athletic interior lineman who has obvious upside at the next level.
Like many center prospects, Hanson does struggle a bit against raw power on the inside. That being said, he understands where he needs to be and shows the foot quickness to get in position. A dominant performance against a big and powerful Wisconsin defensive line could drastically improve Hanson’s draft stock.
Deommodore Lenoir, CB, Oregon
There are a few Oregon defenders who I considered putting here. Linebacker Troy Dye and cornerback Thomas Graham Jr. certainly deserve some attention. That being said, it is another Oregon cornerback who I will be most interested in seeing in this game.
Deommodore Lenoir is a long and athletic cornerback prospect who attacks the ball in the air extremely well. He is extremely physical at the line of scrimmage and has improved his ability to mirror receivers throughout the 2019 season. Lenoir also shows impressive ball skills and understands how to keep opposing receivers in check.
I hope we see Lenoir tested in this game, taking many snaps against talented Wisconsin receiver Quintez Cephus. If he performs well in the Rose Bowl Game, Lenoir should see his draft stock rise.
