You can bet on Tristan Wirfs in the 2020 NFL Draft.  Wirfs (+195) is the favorite to be selected by the Giants at fourth overall.

Roy Larking of SI.com:

"Iowa has a long history of producing quality offensive linemen. The list includes former first-round picks Bryan Bulaga, Riley Reiff and Brandon Scherff. Following in their footsteps, Wirfs projects as a top-10 pick. Wirfs was a true freshman starter for the Hawkeyes and played both tackle positions during a stellar three-year career in Iowa. After being named the 2019 Big Ten Offensive Lineman of the Year, Wirfs followed up with a fantastic showing during the NFL combine. With ideal size, at 6-foot-5 and 322 pounds, Wirfs is NFL-ready."

Daniel Jeremiah (NFL Media): "Lots of good options here, but protecting QB Daniel Jones is the priority. … Wirfs is a big, powerful offensive tackle. In pass protection, he launches out of his stance and hasn't had issues versus outside speed rushers. However, he has experienced issues against inside counter moves. He over-sets and struggles to redirect back inside, allowing too many pressures in the games I studied. When he can land his punch, it's over. His hands are so strong and he has the power base to end the play right there. In the run game, he is very strong and aggressive. He creates a ton of movement, but also will overextend and fall off at times. He's on the ground too much. I love his aggressive demeanor, but he needs to play more under control. Overall, I believe he can survive at tackle, but he'd benefit from playing with neighbors on both sides. I think Wirfs has All-Pro potential at guard."
