Ikem Ekwonu is a phenomenal prospect.
The 6-4, 310-pound junior from NC State is a popular candidate to go to Houston at third overall in the 2022 NFL draft. The former three-star high school recruit turned into a force at left tackle during the 2021 campaign for the Wolfpack and is now largely regarded as the best offensive lineman in the draft.
Bolstering his candidacy, and his potential fit with Houston, is Ekwonu’s versatility. Ekwonu projects as a great tackle prospect but a potentially elite guard prospect. His fit on the line while allowing fourth-year tackle Tytus Howard and franchise cornerstone Laremy Tunsil is seen as a huge plus.
