Proven right tackle with NFL-ready power and leadership
Byers is a big, battle-tested right tackle who started 22 of 23 games for Florida State in 2023-24 and earned the program’s Bobby Bowden Leadership Award in 2024, a strong sign of both reliability and locker-room value[1][7]. In the 2024 season, he was credited with a 66.4 overall Pro Football Focus grade, including a 73.3 pass-blocking mark, showing starter-level pass protection with enough flexibility to anchor the edge[15]. His 2024 knee injury briefly knocked him out, so durability is part of the evaluation[4][5]. If your team wants a tough, experienced OL who brings size, leadership, and real edge-setting upside, Byers is absolutely worth the look[1][7][15].
