Surely it wasn’t Greg Robinson or Braden Smith right? Or was it the Prince kid?

Prince Tega and Jack Driscoll off the top of my head.

This is correct. The last ones drafted came in 2020: Jack Driscoll in the 4th round, and Prince Tega in the 6th round.

And people wonder why Oline recruiting has been hard for Auburn. That’s tough to think about. Geez

People aren't wondering. There was a ton of negative recruiting during Gus' tenure about how many people he put in the NFL from the Oline. They were saying things like his techniques was simple and wouldn't develop the guys to make it to the next level. Pay attention to what recruits say and some of them will spill the beans...

I remember reading articles from years ago about how poorly prepared our OL were for the NFL. They basically had to start all over with Greg Robinson. That kind of stuff resonates with recruits
