Veteran UMass left tackle with proven pass-protection chops and captain-level reliability
Colin Stoetzel was a durable, high-IQ offensive tackle for UMass, entering 2005 as a senior captain with 31 starts in his previous 36 games and a reputation for length, technique, and assignment discipline.[1] In the 2004 season, he helped anchor an offensive line that allowed just nine sacks—the best ratio in the nation—and he earned an 83% coaches’ grade while allowing only one sack himself and posting 55 knockdowns.[1] His best fit is a team that values experienced, steady edge protection and leadership over raw upside, especially after a right-knee injury briefly interrupted his season.[1]
