The 2026 NFL Draft is approaching, with Iowa's offensive linemen expected to be selected. While no Hawkeye may go in the first round, multiple linemen are projected to be drafted on the following days.
The 2026 NFL Draft is just a day away, and there seems to be a steady belief that the Iowa Hawkeyes are once again going to send a group of offensive linemen to the NFL who are ready-made to step in and provide starting-quality play to the team that selects them.
While there may not be a Hawkeye taken off the board during the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, it is only going to be a matter of time before Iowa sees offensive linemen coming off the board on Friday and Saturday.
In CBS Sports' final big board ranking of the top 250 prospects, Iowa is buoyed by three offensive linemen and one defensive lineman.
