3. C Bryce Foster

Bryce Foster comes in at number three on this list. This kid is going to be really good. Foster was thrust into the starting center position last season, entering as a four-star prospect.

Most freshmen struggle to gain their footing in limited snaps, which was partially true for Foster at the start. However, as the year went on, you could see him getting more and more comfortable with his job.

While he was given the starting spot as a freshman, he had a pretty great situation around him, playing between NFL first-round pick Kenyon Green and future All-American Layden Robinson. Now, he still gets to play next to the latter, and has a year under his belt.

The Texas product still has work to do in the passing game. If you really wanted to point at something, it’s that he let go three sacks and 17 hurries at the center position. As he continues to gain game experience though, especially against SEC competition, he will become a better anchor in that part of his game.

He is an easy player to gloss over because he is a lineman, a center at that, but he will be a stud on this offensive line and could earn All-American honors with another jump in development.
