#22 Overall, Quenton Nelson, Indianapolis Colts, Left Guard, #2 Offensive Lineman

2020

2025 Pre-Season Rank #2025, 2024 Pre-Season Rank #29, 2023 Pre-Season Rank #42, 2022 Pre-Season Rank #51, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #78, 2020 Pre-Season Rank #89. Peak Period: 2018-20/2024-25

Here is another fascinating one for us.

Quenton Nelson shot out of a cannon in 2018, finishing third in Offensive Rookie of the Year voting, a rare feat for an Offensive Lineman, and in all of his eight seasons in the NFL (all with Indianapolis), he was named to the Pro Bowl.  Notably, he has six AP All-Pros (three First Team and three Second Team), yet the Colts haven’t been great around him, and he has appeared in only three playoff games.

Nelson looks like an early candidate for an All-Decade nod, and though he has not made the NFL 100 often (only four times), his AV/G is well over the MPA.  Throw in the association with only one team (thus far), his spot as the number two active O-Lineman on the list is well earned.
