FIND THE NFL-ER Since 1999, Kirk Ferentz’s rst year as UI head coach, the Hawkeyes have had a futureNFL player start on the o ensive line in every season.

In each of the last eight years, an eventual NFL rst-round dra pick started on theo ensive line. Brandon Scher , selected by the Washington Redskins h overall in 2015,was Iowa’s le tackle from 2012-14. Riley Rei , selected 23rd overall by the Detroit Lions in2012, started at le tackle from 2010-11. Bryan Bulaga, selected 23rd overall by the GreenBay Packers in 2010, started at le guard in 2007 before moving to le tackle in 2008-09.

From 2005-06, Bal more Ravens All-Pro Marshal Yanda shared me at tackle andguard for the Hawkeyes. Mike Elgin, a seventh round selec on of New England, was Iowa’sstar ng center in 2004. Pete McMahon, dra ed by Oakland in 2005, was Iowa’s right guardin 2003. Oakland’s rst round pick in 2004, Robert Gallery, was Iowa’s le tackle from

2001-03. Eric Steinbach (Cincinna ) started at guard for Iowa from 2000-02, and BruceNelson (Carolina) was a four-year starter from 1999-02. Both players were second rounddra picks in 2003.

OFFENSIVE-TACKLE-BY-COMMITTEE The Hawkeyes have started four di erent o ensive tackles this season. Three of them-- LT Boone Myers, RT Ike Boe ger, LT Cole Croston -- entered the season with one combinedcareer start (Boe ger started as a second ght end against Wisconsin in 2014). OL SeanWelsh had 13 career starts at le guard before sliding out to right tackle at Northwestern.

Myers and Boe ger opened the season as starters. Myers was injured in Week 4 andhasn’t returned to ac on. Croston has started at le tackle in Iowa’s three Big Ten games.They are the rst three starts of Croston’s career. Boe ger le the Illinois game in Week 6with an injury and was replaced at right tackle by true freshman James Daniels. Danielsstarted at le guard at Northwestern.

Iowa’s o ensive-tackle-by-commi ee is being asked to replace a pair of NFL lineman-- 2014 Outland Trophy winner LT Brandon Scher (Washington Redskins) and RT AndrewDonnal (St. Louis Rams).

Myers joined the program as a walk-on and was put on scholarship prior to the 2014season. He saw ac on in four games last season. Boe ger joined the team as a ghtend but was moved to o ensive line in 2013. He saw ac on in seven games as a redshirtfreshman in 2014. Croston joined the team as a walk-on in 2012, and had played primarilyon special teams prior to this season. Daniels was a highly recruited senior at Harding HighSchool in Warren, Ohio. He joined the program for the 2015 spring prac ce season. Welshwas a high school All-American in Springboro, Ohio, and was named rst team freshmanAll-Big Ten by BTN in 2014.
