While the offensive line might not represent a direct draft day decision for your roster, few areas of knowledge can offer a competitive advantage in fantasy football like having a good grasp of the various units of trench soldiers around the league.

The Lions also selected tight end Brandon Pettigrew with their 20th overall pick. And the Browns traded down to get Alex Mack. As a result, the aforementioned players found themselves suddenly undrafted nearly 20 picks in, until the Eagles traded up to snatch Maclin off the board.
