To be an offensive lineman in the NFL, you have to have the size and athletic ability to move with the top one percent of athletes. However, when you have a rare trait as a mountainous man playing offensive tackle, that can quickly and easily change how many view a draft prospect. Miami Hurricanes offensive lineman Markel Bell fits the bill and is projected as a day two pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, thanks to his rare trait. Standing 6-foot-9, 340 lbs., the former Hurricane was one of the best pass rush protectors in the country, and his size allowed the Canes to lean on him in the run game, especially towards the end of the season. Having that size is a blessing and a curse, because it can also be taken advantage of by powerful players in the league.
