Walterfootball Position Rankings (5. G Stenberg:  Projected Round (2020): 3-5.
4/21/20: Stenberg and Landon Young formed a good left side of the offensive line for Kentucky in 2019. Stenberg had a good week of practice at the Senior Bowl and was a beast in the run-blocking one-on-ones. He has good size, strength, and plays with a serious mean streak. However, Stenberg needs to improve in pass protection for the NFL. He also needs to get more disciplined and avoid mental mistakes like penalties.  8/17/19: Stenberg has been a power run blocker at left guard for the past few years. The big and strong Stenberg was an integral part of the line that opened the holes for running back Benny Snell to rewrite Kentucky's record books. Showing well against speed pass-rushers would help Stenberg, but as long as he stays healthy, he should enter the NFL with a lot of experience and preparation against top competition.):   https://walterfootball.com/draft2020OG.php

Calling him “chippy” would be underselling it. Call him He Hate Me II. The SEC certainly did. Stenberg drew 14 flags in 2019. That recklessness and lack of discipline won't fly in the pros, but the demeanor is aces and the wild nastiness is backed by some superb recent pass-block work, with just one pressure allowed in 262 pass-blocking snaps in 2019 (granted, Kentucky rarely truly put the ball in the air). What can be built on, here, if Stenberg can cool it just a little bit, is a strong technical base and natural football mind. Patience and control will be key for the heavy-handed grinder given his vanilla athleticism.

2020 Senior Bowl Stock Report (Up - Logan Stenberg, G, Kentucky:  The offensive lineman who helped himself the most from the South squad was Kentucky's Logan Stenberg. He was strong and tough at the point of attack with an aggressive style of blocking. He is a real scrapper who plays with a mean streak. Stenberg was especially impressive in the run blocking one-on-ones. After his strong Senior Bowl, he could be a day-two pick.) (1-25-20):  http://walterfootball.com/seniorbowl2020stock.php

2020 Reese’s Senior Bowl Practice Report: South Team (Tuesday - Stenberg had a strong day as well. In run block drills he was moving bodies, and he will look to build on a strong performance.  Wednesday - Stenberg, similar to yesterday, had a strong performance. He’s had a good week in Mobile displaying strength, athletic ability, and consistency. He is an ascending player.  Thursday - Stenberg got better and better as the week went on. He’s one of the top interior guys here and was able to put everything together for a strong Thursday outing.  Analysis - Stenberg had a strong week from start to finish, showing that he can be one of the top guards in the class. He has both a strong base and can maul defenders in the run game, while also being fluid enough to get around to it in the run game. He can be used in any scheme and his week in Mobile was excellent. He pushed Cushenberry for the title as the best interior offensive linemen in the Senior Bowl this week.)

2020 NFL Draft: Titans team needs, draft picks, prospects to watch for Tennessee (Stenberg:  Likely available on the second or third day of the draft, Stenberg is a Titans-type of offensive lineman in that he absolutely demolishes defensive linemen in the run game with outstanding leverage and flat-out overwhelming power. Plus, he got plenty of run-blocking practice this season with Lynn Bowden as Kentucky's designed-run based quarterback.)

Senior Bowl Offensive Linemen (Logan Stenberg, Kentucky (G):  Not many interior offensive linemen are 6-foot-6 like offensive tackles and there is a reason for that. Unlike offensive tackles who sort of fan out and flow around in a wider set of space, interior linemen are more or less locked into a tight area right in front of the quarterback. Quarterbacks have to be able to throw over the top of them and some simply can’t or struggle to do so. Logan Stenberg is looking to transcend that “rule.” At 6-foot-6, 322-pounds, Stenberg is a hefty dude who started for four seasons at left guard with the Kentucky Wildcats. While team success was hit or miss, Stenberg always stood out among his o-line peers. As is often necessary in the SEC, Stenberg is a mauler in the trenches and never plays with the intention of allowing his opponent to overpower him.  In fact, Stenberg makes it a point to ensure his opponents feel the lasting effects of each and every rep. Stenberg plays with a raw power and aggression that can physically wear down opponents over the course of the game, especially if the Wildcats run game is really clicking. For coaches that want to impose their will on opponents — and even with the rise of analytics, there are plenty of these dudes around — Stenberg’s nastiness is a perfect fit. Conversely, Stenberg’s height legitimately works against him. Not only does Stenberg have the potential hindrance as a pass protector mentioned before, but being such a tall player at a position that often requires low, flexible leverage can be a problem. While there are instances in which Stenberg’s power wins out anyway, Stenberg can almost never be the lower man and will be at a significant leverage advantage most of the time in the NFL. Against bigger, better, smarter NFL athletes, that leverage difference will absolutely be felt by Stenberg. Still, Stenberg has found a way to make it work this well in the SEC for a half-decade. Aside from maybe doing it at LSU or Alabama, Stenberg’s experience and film resume are about as convincing as they could be for a player of his unusual size for his position. ) (1-21-20): https://www.rotoworld.com/article/evaluations/senior-bowl-offensive-linemen

2020 Senior Bowl: Tuesday's South Team Practice Report (The offensive lineman who helped himself from the South squad on Tuesday was Kentucky's Logan Stenberg. He was strong and tough at the point of attack with an aggressive style of blocking. He is a real scrapper who plays with a mean streak. In the run blocking one-on-ones, Stenberg was especially impressive. If he continues this play over the rest of the week, he could be a second-day pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.)

PFF 2020 Reese’s Senior Bowl Preview: players to watch, draft implications, schedule, team rosters and more (Logan Stenberg had an impressive last couple of seasons for Kentucky and is a day-two prospect as of now. In pass-protection since the start of 2018, Stenberg has allowed a minimal pressure rate of just 1.5%. A big red flag on his play is the 24 penalties he has accrued in that same time span. Even with that, he finished the year as the fourth most valuable guard in college football in WAA. The 6-foot-6, 322-pounder is one of the most physical players in the class and is going to be a treat to watch in the Senior Bowl with NFL scouts all around him.)

15 players who could make sense for Detroit Lions in Senior Bowl (Logan Stenberg, guard, Kentucky:  It’s looking like the Lions will need one or two interior linemen this offseason with Graham Glasgow, Kenny Wiggins and Oday Aboushi all set to be free agents. In 2013, the Lions drafted a Kentucky lineman they coached at the Senior Bowl in Larry Warford, and that worked out pretty well. Stenberg is a powerful run blocker who primarily played on the left side. He could benefit from showing some positional flexibility at the Senior Bowl. ) (1-15-20):  https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/nfl/lions/2020/01/15/15-players-who-could-make-sense-detroit-lions-senior-bowl/4480357002/

NFL draft: 2020 draft prospects to watch from every college bowl game (Kentucky OG Logan Stenberg — An absolute mauler in the run game at left guard, Stenberg could be the highest-drafted 2020 prospect on the field here. He struggles to play with proper leverage at times, standing too upright in his stance, and is good but not great as a puller. Stenberg also has been flagged for a whopping 12 penalties, one of the highest totals for any interior blocker in the country. But Stenberg could still be a force in this game, against Tech’s solid run defense. Stenberg reminds us a bit of 2014 Jacksonville Jaguars third-rounder Brandon Linder — but with even more mass.)

A three-year starter for the Wildcats, he’s a fringe Day 2 draftable player, but in a weak interior offensive lineman class, his stock in on the way up.)

2019 College Bowl Preview: Belk and Sun Bowls (There are a few players of note to watch for today on the Kentucky Wildcats. Senior guard Logan Stenburg headlines a formidable trio that has the talent to play on Sundays. Stenburg’s lateral agility and nimble footwork enables him to get to the second level of the defense in a hurry, and projects as an eventual starter at the next level. The Academic All-American will also bring an astute football IQ to an NFL huddle.) (12-31-19):  https://www.profootballnetwork.com/2019-college-bowl-preview-belk-and-sun-bowls/

After a false start and a holding call this past week against Georgia, Stenberg has now been flagged 10 times on the season – third most of any offensive lineman in the country. This comes after being flagged 10 times a season ago. It’s just something you’ll have to live with the way Stenberg plays the game at this point.)

He has the type of nastiness to his game that offensive line coaches around the country will surely fall in love with. On 147 pass-blocking snaps this season, he’s yet to allow a single pressure and that includes matchups with Florida and Mississippi State. Now if he could only clean up the penalty problem that’s seen him flagged seven times already this season and 10 times last year.)

Specifically, Stenberg told reporters that he spent the offseason working on his technique. “He is a guy that could have come out this year but he is definitely coming back and has that mentality that many of these guys did to concentrate on some of the areas that he needs to improve,” UK HC Mike Stoops said in April.)

  1. Think Richie Incognito without the loose screws. A difference-maker who may not clean up his penalties but will, along with Jackson, transform the identity and mindset of both sides of the trenches. Lions practices will be brutal. That's how you you better.
