Montana State’s Marcus Wehr Poised for NFL Draft Selection

Billings, Montana – Marcus Wehr, an offensive lineman from Montana State University, is projected to be selected in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Wehr is ranked as the No. 163 overall prospect and the No. 9 offensive guard according to Draft Scout’s database.

Originally arriving at Montana State as a defensive lineman, Wehr made a significant position switch to the offensive line in 2022, where he has since thrived. After starting the first seven games at tackle in 2022 before sustaining an injury, he returned to secure the tackle spot in 2023. His performances earned him high praise, including being named the No. 1 offensive tackle in all of FCS and FBS by Pro Football Focus (PFF) and receiving First Team All-American and All-Big Sky honors.

Wehr’s versatility shone through when he moved to guard for the 2024 season, as he again earned First Team All-American and All-Conference accolades, topping PFF’s rankings for FCS offensive guards. His outstanding run-blocking capabilities and upper-body strength are key attributes that enhance his suitability for the NFL.

At Montana State’s recent pro day, Wehr showcased his athleticism, measuring in at 6 feet 2 inches and weighing 301 pounds. He participated in various drills, recording a 5.15-second 40-yard dash, a 4.91-second shuttle, and a vertical jump of 34.5 inches.

Wehr’s notable performances include dominating against FBS opponents, specifically during a comeback win against New Mexico, where the team often ran behind him. His transition from a defensive player to an offensive lineman exemplifies his adaptability and determination, making him a promising prospect in the upcoming NFL Draft.
