Here are the notes from the article for these positions
— The undersized Isaiah Hookfin has the best feet of the tackle options joining the program, so he gets the nod at left tackle.
— Inside at left guard, former Georgia Tech standout Parker Braun will immediately get first-team reps, as redshirt freshman Junior Angilau struggled in pass protection in the Orange-White game. Of course, that’s a question for Braun after playing in Paul Johnson’s triple option offense in Atlanta, but Braun’s motor and maturity give him the edge over Angilau.
— With the lack of interior offensive linemen, junior college transfer Willie Tyler, who is listed at 330 pounds, is projected here to move inside after JP Urquidez struggled to make a similar transition during the spring. In fact, as long as Tyler’s 6’7 height doesn’t cause major leverage issues, Tyler has a decent chance to become the fourth or fifth guard on position coach Herb Hand’s matrix.
— Javonne Shepherd has the athleticism to remain outside, but he’s raw and is likely a year away from pushing someone like redshirt freshman Christian Jones for the backup role at right tackle.
— The defensive line is one of the most crowded positions on the roster with 13 players competing for only three positions. Like Shepherd, Louisianian Myron Warren is a raw player with high upside who looks headed for a redshirt season. However, he’s extremely talented and plays with an edge that could allow him to quickly pass older players on the depth chart as he gains strength and refines his technique.
— Though Texas didn’t sign a true nose tackle in the 2019 class, T’Vondre Sweat was listed at 285 pounds by the school on Early Signing Day, so he’s the projected nose tackle of the group. It’s a deep position with two seniors ahead of him, so he’s got a difficult path to get on the field.
