Kadyn Proctor
20-Year-Old
Will start out at left guard
General manager Jon-Eric Sullivan said Wednesday that Proctor will start his NFL career at the left guard position, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sullivan said that Proctor will train at both tackle and guard, but to begin the season, 2025 second-rounder Jonah Savaiinaea will go to right guard to make room for Proctor at left guard. He won't turn 21 until June, and despite his otherwise massive stature, his 33-inch arms are short by tackle standards, so it makes decent sense that Miami won't task him with protecting recent signing Malik Willis' blindside right off the bat.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Another connection to Lions
Bucky Brooks of NFL.com projected that the Lions will select Proctor with the 17th overall pick in his mock draft published April 21.
ANALYSIS
Proctor was regarded as a top NFL offensive line prospect during his time at Alabama, and he looks likely to be selected in the first round. The Lions have consistently been mentioned as a potential landing spot after the departure of Taylor Decker, with Brooks' mock being the most recent connection. Should he land in Detroit, Proctor would likely be expected to start right away, although he could handle the right side while Penei Sewell shifts across the line to protect Jared Goff's blind side.
