Paralcete left tackle Mason VanKirk
(There are some next level players on this list. Only 26 of the 64 who started a year ago return. Like always we based it on what we saw during the past season, film, what coaches have told us, and post season honors. Far from perfect, tell us who we are missing. Give us names and reasons. Like the guards and centers, these guys deserve it because they do all the dirty work.)

***Note*** We are aware that changes happen along the offensive line all the time. A tackle today, might be the center next week. A guard this year might be a tackle next fall.
***Note II*** Coaches that want more attention for their centers, and offensive line in general, must do a better job promoting them. Number switches and in some cases zero information on post season honors and sizes (height/weight) make it difficult to appraise and praise the trenchmen.
