Draft Profile: Bio
Second-team FWAA All-America honors capped Laurence Seymore's 2025 season at Western Kentucky, where he started all 13 games at left guard and allowed one sack and eight total pressures across 532 pass-blocking snaps. He added first-team All-Conference USA recognition from Phil Steele and second-team all-league honors from the conference, and he did not allow a pressure in 70 snaps at Toledo.Seymore reached Bowling Green by a winding route. A four-star out of Miami Central High School and one of the nation's top-rated interior linemen in the 2021 class, he signed with Miami, playing two games as a freshman and six in 2022 with snaps at center and both guard spots. A stop at Akron followed before he landed at Western Kentucky.
In the winter portal Seymore signed with Texas, and the NCAA granted his eligibility extension waiver in spring 2026, clearing him to join the Longhorns after finishing his degree.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- FWAA second-team All-American in his lone Western Kentucky season.
- Eight pressures allowed on 532 pass-blocking snaps, efficient protection at volume.
- Held his own at LSU in the season's one Power Four measuring stick.
- Texas signed him out of the portal and won him an eligibility waiver, a real endorsement.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Shortest lineman in this group, with the leverage profile of a phone-booth-only guard.
- Run blocking ranked near the bottom of these interiors despite the honors.
- Slow stopwatch numbers cap the pulling and screen menu.
- Sixth-year journeyman arc: Miami to Akron to WKU to Austin.
- Conference USA dominance is the thinnest proof tier in the class.
Scouting Report: Summary
The honors and the film tell slightly different stories, which is itself the story. Seymore earned FWAA second-team All-America at Western Kentucky on the strength of efficient pass protection, eight pressures on 532 snaps, and held his own in the LSU game that served as the schedule's lone real measuring stick. Texas believed enough to sign him from the portal and fight successfully for a sixth-year eligibility waiver, an endorsement with institutional money behind it.The skeptic's ledger is full though. He is the shortest lineman in the group with a phone-booth leverage profile, the run blocking ranked near the bottom of these interiors despite the All-America line, the stopwatch caps any pulling menu, and the resume is a sixth-year tour from Miami through Akron to Bowling Green. Conference USA dominance remains the thinnest proof tier a senior season can offer.
Now comes the cleanest natural experiment in the group: the same player, moved directly into the SEC's best program, at an age where what shows in September is what exists. Hold up at Texas and the protection efficiency becomes a late-round argument overnight; struggle, and the file closes as a camp invite. He projects as an undrafted priority whose 2026 evidence, for once, will be unusually decisive in both directions at the same time.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank
in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance.
For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.
*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
