Draft Profile: Bio
Austin Siereveld was a first-team All-Ohio lineman at Lakota East High School, where he also played basketball and lacrosse, and he signed with Ohio State as a four-star recruit in the 2023 class after a recruitment that included Alabama, Notre Dame, Penn State and Michigan. He enrolled early and redshirted as a freshman.Siereveld played in every game of Ohio State's 2024 national championship season and made his first starts at left guard in place of the injured Donovan Jackson, including games against Indiana, Michigan, Tennessee and Oregon. Ohio State moved him to left tackle for 2025, and he started all 14 games there without allowing a sack, giving up 15 pressures on 810 snaps. He was a second-team All-Big Ten pick and earned the program's Iron Buckeye honor twice, and he earned Academic All-Big Ten recognition in 2024.
Siereveld returned for 2026 as a team captain after a small spring procedure that cost him the rest of spring practice. He opened at right guard, then moved to right tackle after an injury on the line, and he allowed one sack in the win at Iowa. He missed the Maryland and Indiana games for what was described as an illness or an unspecified injury, then returned at tackle against USC, where he gave up five pressures in the 30-18 loss. He has said he did not enjoy right guard but will play wherever the team needs him.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Started all 14 games at left tackle in 2025 without allowing a sack
- Moves people in the run game with a heavy, settled anchor
- Second-team All-Big Ten in his first season at tackle
- Has started at left tackle, right tackle and both guard spots
- Voted a team captain for 2026 by his Ohio State teammates
- Made starts on Ohio State's 2024 national championship line as a redshirt freshman
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- USC beat him for five pressures in his return on 31 October
- Missed two October games for reasons Ohio State did not fully explain
- Hurries pile up against speed, even when the sack column stays clean
- Flagged for five penalties in six games this season
Scouting Report: Summary
Siereveld went a full season at left tackle without allowing a sack in 2025, earning second-team All-Big Ten honors and the respect of a program that voted him a captain for 2026. He wins with mass, placement and patience, moves people as a run blocker and has proven he can play four spots on the line, from left tackle to right guard. He also started on the 2024 national title team, at left guard against Indiana, Michigan, Tennessee and Oregon.That versatility has been tested this season. He opened at right guard, a position he has admitted he did not enjoy, then moved outside to right tackle when Ohio State had an injury, and he held up well in the first five games. He allowed one sack at Iowa but was otherwise steady until his absence in the middle of October. He has played 363 snaps across six games this season.
However, the speed question remains. Even in his sack-free 2025 season he allowed 15 pressures, and in his return against USC on 31 October he gave up five in a loss. He has also been flagged five times in six games, and he missed the Maryland and Indiana games for reasons Ohio State did not fully explain, after a spring procedure that cost him practice time. Teams will want to understand both before draft day. He earned the program's Iron Buckeye honor twice, a sign of how he is viewed inside the building.
Overall, how teams weigh the speed problem decides his position and his round. Inside, the speed issue mostly disappears and his power plays every snap; outside, he needs a cleaner answer to NFL edge rushers. He projects as a second-round lineman and a long-term starter at guard or right tackle. His guard experience on a title team gives teams confidence he can make that move without a long transition.
Update - 11/03/2026
Siereveld moved from right guard to right tackle after an injury on the Ohio State line in Week 2. He missed the Maryland and Indiana games, which Ryan Day put down to a non-football reason, and is expected back at USC.
