6 offensive guards the Carolina Panthers could draft in 2020
By Dean Jones
Logan Stenberg – (Kentucky)
Logan Stenberg is potentially a diamond in the rough and could be an instant starter if he brushes up certain aspects of his play.
Stenberg boasts the perfect size and weight of an interior lineman (6-foot-6, 322 pounds) and although there are plenty of questions he will need to answer, he can be a valued contributor.
Stenberg had a hugely impressive Senior Bowl week earlier this year that checked off a lot of boxes about his ability to make a good transition to the NFL. His power off the line of scrimmage is a valuable asset to have.
One area of great concern is Stenberg’s mobility. His weakness showed up on more than one occasion during the season when dealing with quick pass rushers and he lacks the agility needed to fill in at multiple positions.
This is something that is sure to warrant the attention of the Carolina Panthers’ front office. Stenberg also performed well at the NFL Scouting Combine this week to further enhance his draft stock.
Stenberg is not projected to be a first-round pick. But it would not be a surprise to see him come off the board in rounds 2-4 depending on how many teams have become enamored with the player during an eye-catching evaluation process.
