All of the talk at the top of the 2013 NFL Draft surrounds the offensive tackles. Luke Joeckel and Eric Fisher are considered by some to be the two best players in this draft class, while Lane Johnson has worked his way into the top 10 discussion.
As many as five offensive tackles could end up being drafted in round one, with another handful likely to get picked on the second night of the draft. After the top three, D.J. Fluker is a distant No. 4. He doesn't have the skill set to play left tackle in the NFL but could become a big time right tackle.
With those four entrenched at the top of the rankings, two athletic, raw prospects have the upside to crack the top-40 picks. Terron Armstead and Menelik Watson both impressed throughout the pre-draft process and have earned the right to occupy the second tier of tackles.
