a rare 6-8 left tackle who earned All-MAC respect at Western Michigan
In the 2012 season, Dann O’Neill was a first-team All-MAC offensive tackle for Western Michigan, starting all 12 games and logging 906 snaps, a sign of durability and trust at a premium position[5]. His biggest differentiators were size, stamina, and consistency: he also played 2,520 career snaps and started all 35 games he appeared in, showing the kind of plug-in reliability coaches love[3][5]. He was viewed as a heralded high-school tackle and a preseason All-MAC type, so the appeal is clear if a team wants a long, experienced, battle-tested blocker with real conference pedigree[4][7].
