It sure seems like Iheanachor, who didn\u2019t start playing football until he walked onto his junior college\u2019s football team, is a popular prospect as the draft approaches.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Bringing in Iheanachor seems significant, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com\/big-boards\/2026\/consensus-big-board-2026?pos=OT\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">since he\u2019s ranked 31st on the consensus draft board<\/a>. With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acmepackingcompany.com\/green-bay-packers-draft\/81038\/packers-draft-visit-tracker-2026-all-the-college-prospects-meeting-with-green-bay\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">28 of the Packers\u2019 30 visits now reported<\/a>, Iheanachor is by far the highest-ranked player that Green Bay has brought in. The next-highest ranked prospect is Georgia defensive tackle Christen Miller at #47. It could be possible that if there is a Packers trade-up candidate for next week\u2019s draft, it\u2019ll be Iheanachor. He\u2019s the only prospect that they\u2019ve brought in, at least that we know of, who would sort of fit that mold.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Iheanachor was an All-Big 12 right tackle in 2025 and measured in at 6\u20196\u201d and 321 pounds at the combine. He also had 34\u201d arms and ran an impressive 4.91-second 40-yard dash, which is special for an offensive lineman his size. He began his college career at East Los Angeles College before transferring to Arizona State. He was a two-year starter for the Sun Devils.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The Packer shave brought in just two other offensive linemen for visits this draft cycle: Ohio State\u2019s Ethan Onianwa and Illinois\u2019 Josh Gesky, who are expected to be undrafted free agents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Aaron Wilson of KPRC in Houston is reporting that Arizona State tackle Max Iheanachor visited the Green Bay&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":737598,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[238038,1232,62,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-737597","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-green-bay-packers-draft","9":"tag-nfl","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-united-states","12":"tag-unitedstates","13":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116428257871084338","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/737597","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=737597"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/737597\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/737598"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=737597"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=737597"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=737597"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
