Welcome everyone to the 2026 NFL Draft film room series where I sit down with various offensive line prospects to bring you unique insight into the position from their perspective. Each film room will be full of technique, scheme, opponents, background stories and exclusive details about each player that you won’t find anywhere else. This is the sixth year in a row that I have been able to put these together.

I welcomed Penn State All-American left guard Vega Ioane to the film room for Episode 1 of my 2026 OL prospect series. A powerful, tone-setting interior presence at 6’4”, ~330+ pounds, Ioane has been a multi-year fixture in the Nittany Lions’ starting five and one of the most dependable pieces of Penn State’s offense over the last two seasons.
Ioane earned First-Team All-Big Ten honors and was recognized as a First-Team All-American during the 2025 postseason awards cycle, validating what the tape shows: a guard who consistently wins with power, a stout anchor and strong hands.
Despite Penn State’s offense underperforming this year, Ioane stood out as a steady, high-floor force inside — and the best “true guard” I evaluated in the 2026 class at this stage of the process. In this film room, I run through 15–20 of his best reps to illustrate why: displacement in the run game, firm edges in pass pro, and the kind of play temperament that sets the standard for everyone around him.
