Thanos – Dawand Jones, OT, Ohio State

While Dawand Jones may weigh nearly 600 pounds less than Thanos, both stand right around 6-foot-7 and possess wingspans that boggle your mind. Thanos with the infinity stones is unstoppable but lucky for the NFL, Jones hasn’t assembled all of the stones yet. Still, he can rely on his trademark length to keep pass rushers at bay and bury them into the ground when they try to get into his chest.

Jones is best suited for physicality early in his career. Just like Thanos, Jones instills fear in the heart of those that line up across from him. The Ohio State lineman is searching for the rest of his game right now, but maybe with the snap of a finger, we could look up in a few months and see a potential All-Pro offensive tackle. Jones is one of the biggest (no pun intended) risk-reward players in the 2023 NFL Draft.
