[C Big Board Summer Scouting Update — 7/26/25]: With dominant blocker Logan Jones manning the middle, Iowa returns one of the strongest offensive line units in the nation. Considered a potential first round pick, Jones suffered a bone break in his snapping right hand late in the year. He’s expected to be ready to go for training camp and possesses excellent athleticism. Few players have been more dependable than Parker Brailsford during his collegiate career. A staple of dependability for Kalen DeBoer at Washington, he followed his coach to Alabama and was an integral reason for helping the Crimson Tide offensive line cut their sacks allowed in half in 2024. His smarts, communication and ability to anchor make him a high floor prospect. His teammate Jaedon Roberts started all 13 games at center for the Crimson Tide a year ago and is expected to play guard in 2025 but is also viewed as a top center prospect for the upcoming draft. His superior size and strength (able to squat 900 pounds) rank in the elite category. A standout on and off the field, cerebral Florida center Jake Slaughter became just the third center in Gators history to earn All-American honors, allowing just one sack in 800 snaps last season. He has also been named to the SEC All-Academic team each year for his work in the classroom. With top-level size, instincts and intelligence, Slaughter makes for a prime pro prospect.
