Anthony Belton’s NFL Draft Scouting Report
Anthony Belton is a physically imposing offensive tackle with the strength and length to control defenders at the line of scrimmage. He excels in pass protection, using his size and footwork to keep edge rushers at bay while maintaining balance against power moves.
In the run game, he generates solid push and plays with an aggressive mentality, helping open lanes for ball carriers. His awareness and ability to adjust to stunts make him a dependable presence on the line.

However, he can improve his pad level and hand placement to maximize his power and consistency.
With refinement, Belton has a degree of upside at tackle or guard, but he’s also not an elite athlete, nor does he have elite recalibration flexibility. Thus, he may exist more naturally in OL-friendly schemes where help is often available.
Anthony Belton’s NFL Draft Projection
In CSN’s 7-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft from April 12, Belton landed in Round 4 with the 148th overall pick.
And in CSN’s recent 3-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft, Brian Burden had this to say about Belton’s selection to the Baltimore Ravens in Round 2 with the 59th pick:
Anthony Belton is a massive, 6’6″, 345-pound tackle who was a mauler and a three-year starter for the Wolfpack. The All-ACC-caliber lineman logged over 2,200 snaps and recorded dozens of pancakes, suitable for his nickname, “Escalade.”
Ronnie Stanley is nearing 10 years of service, and the offensive lineman room could use another dose of youth after drafting Roger Rosengarten last season.
