50: Andrew Dale, OL (Sr.) — North Carolina Central
Dale brings valuable experience to the NC Central offensive line. The 6-foot-2, 280-pound guard has been a standout lineman since his redshirt freshman season in 2017, where he allowed just one sack in 614 snaps and graded out at 84 percent on blocking assignments.
He followed that up with an All-MEAC Second Team selection as a sophomore. Last year, Dale was voted on the All-Conference Third Team, allowing only two sacks and owning a blocking grade of 81 percent.
Dale has a combination of athleticism and nastiness, utilizing his high school wrestling background.
NFL Draft Diamonds ranks Dale as the 21st best HBCU pro prospect.
