USC’s Most Versatile OL, 7th-Round NFL Pick with Elite Technical Proficiency
Jonah Monheim, USC’s top offensive lineman in 2023 and 2024 All-Big Ten center, stands out for his rare versatility—having started at left tackle before dominating at center. At 6-5, 295 lbs, he brings elite technical proficiency (80.9 scouting rating) and generated 0.06 wins above average in 2024 (78th percentile among college centers). Selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 7th round (221st pick) of the 2025 NFL Draft, Monheim is known for his intense preparation, leadership in the locker room, and ability to elevate USC’s top-10 passing offense (291.9 ypg). While not a physical powerhouse, his adaptability, football IQ, and consistency make him a high-fit, reliable starter for any team seeking a smart, versatile interior lineman.
