steady Wisconsin edge road-grader with Big Ten experience
Jacob Maxwell brought real Wisconsin-style trench value in the 2015 and 2016 seasons, logging 18 career games and 10 starts at right tackle while helping the Badgers’ ground game stay productive. He was a three-star recruit from Greendale and earned first-team all-state honors in high school, which fits the Badgers’ usual appetite for rugged, technically sound linemen. The caveat: his 2016 season was cut short by a season-ending injury, so durability matters here. If you want a developmental, downhill-run-friendly blocker with Power-5 snaps, he’s a credible fit.
