Dalton Risner 2019 NFL Draft Profile<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Dalton Risner<\/strong> is a redshirt senior out of Kansas State. He started his redshirt freshman year at center, where he played for all 13 games. His breakout year came during his sophomore season where he moved to right tackle. He only allowed one sack all season and thus his dominant play earned him a spot on the All-Big XII first team. For his junior year, he would stay at right tackle and yet again received first-team All-Big XII notice. It was a year in which he ranked in the top 10 in pass protection, run blocking and quarterback pressures, along with surrendering zero sacks.<\/p>\n

He would go on to skip the bowl game that year in favor of having shoulder surgery to ensure he was healed in time for the start of his senior season. That year, he started at right tackle, where he garnered a spot on the second-team All-Big 12. While this may seem like a step down from his previous two seasons, it\u2019s important to note that he again allowed zero sacks bringing his grand total to one sack surrendered in his entire collegiate career.<\/p>\n

With the type of collegiate career that he\u2019s had, it\u2019s easy to see why so many scouts have given him a first-round grade. With the flexibility to play anywhere on the offensive line and his efficiency in pass protection, Risner should be a lock as late first to early second round pick. While there are some concerns about his footwork and lack of athleticism, his stellar game tape and multiple first-team All-Big 12 accolades should be enough to keep him from falling too far down team\u2019s draft boards.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
