Draft Scouting Report
Pro Comparison: Taylor Lewan
Summary
Freeling looks like he was a create-a-player in EA Sports College Football. He truly has everything you could want physically, including the slender frame of a rocked-up tight end. Toward the end of last season, he wasn’t ceding an inch in pass protection. There’s still a ways to go for him technically, but the ceiling is sky-high.
About
- 2025: Second-team All-SEC (coaches)
- 2025: 10th among Power Four OTs in pressure rate (2.6%) on “normal” pass-protection snaps (no screens, throws under 2.0 seconds, DL stunts), per Underdog Fantasy
Strengths
- Explosive mover in space; can really jolt on contact.
- Exceptional at sinking and riding defenders past the top of the pocket.
- Deadens spiking defenders on stunts; passes off so well.
Weaknesses
- Hands struggle to sustain blocks in the run game.
- Will overextend to engage defenders on the move.
- Hands and feet not always in coordination.
Combine Data
- 40-yard dash: 4.93 seconds
- Vertical jump: 33.5 inches
- Broad jump: 9 feet, 7 inches

Panthers' Monroe Freeling: Picked by Panthers
The Panthers selected Freeling in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 19th overall.
Freeling (6-foot-7, 315 pounds) might be more potential than polish after starting just one year at Georgia, but that one year was promising to the point that this selection looks like a steal for the Panthers. Carolina might be unsure of what to expect in the recovery process for Ikem Ekwonu (patellar tendon), and the otherwise excellent Taylor Moton at right tackle will turn 32 in August. As much as Freeling played left tackle at Georgia and can easily project there in the NFL, Freeling could just as easily play on the right side.
