The NFL’s best offensive linemen have traits like physicality, tenacity, versatility and a motor that never stops running.

All of those words apply to Kentucky’s Logan Stenberg, one of the top interior blockers in the 2020 NFL draft class.

Stenberg recently spoke exclusively with Draft Wire about his experience playing for the Wildcats against SEC competition, which NFL quarterback he’d most like to block for, and what kind of impact he’ll have at the next level.

JM: You leave Kentucky for the next level as an experienced interior offensive linemen. You really were one of the leaders of that offense. How does that experience serve you well going forward?

LS: I learned a lot about football throughout my time at Kentucky. There are a lot of intangibles that simply can’t be taught. There are some traits you either have or you don’t. That experience should help me a ton at the next level.

JM: What do you enjoy most about playing on the offensive line?

LS: I love the brotherhood of it. You’re really a unit as an offensive line. You have four other guys next to you with the same goal in mind. We’re basically one. Being able to work in a unit like that on a daily basis is very rewarding for me.

JM: Most of your experience has come at left guard, but you’ve played all over the line. You even have a little experience at tackle. What do you feel is your best position at the next level?

LS: I do currently believe that keeping me on the interior makes the most sense for all parties involved. Left guard, right guard or even center would be best for me. That’s where I expect to play in the NFL.

JM: Those experiences have exposed you to many different schemes. Is there one that fits you best?

LS: I just love to run the ball. Any scheme that’s run heavy, that’s the one for me. I enjoy offenses that run the ball between the tackles. I’ll fit well within that. I can pass protect as well. I can adapt to any scheme though. It’s pretty simple for me.

JM: Playing at Kentucky afforded you the opportunity to play against some of the best competition college football has to offer. Who are some of the best interior defensive linemen you’ve gone up against?

LS: I played against Javon Kinlaw from South Carolina this past season. He was by far the best defensive tackle I’ve played against. He’s a powerful, long guy. It’s tough to get his hands off of you when he locks them down. He was a very good opponent.

JM: What’s your favorite way to demoralize your opponent?

LS: I love finishing blocks. Finishing a guy into the ground and putting him on his back before the whistle is blown is one way for me to show that I’m better than he is and that I got the best of him on that play.

JM: How do you react if someone delivers a late hit on your quarterback?

LS: That’s not something we take lightly (laughs). Me and four other big dudes are definitely gonna remember what number you’re wearing. We’re gonna get you back at some point.

JM: Do you have a preferred pass set?

LS: Yeah, I like a quick pass set. Two kicks and I don’t like creating too much separation between myself and my opponent. I can get my hands on him and block him out of the play. That’s the best way for me to do that.

JM: Is there an NFL quarterback that you’d love to block for?

LS: That’s a tough question. I’d love to block for Tom Brady. He’s obviously been a great quarterback in this league for many years now. I think you could learn a lot from him. It would be beneficial for my future if I could learn from a guy like that. I’d love to pick his brain and ask what he thinks about offensive line play.

JM: What kind of impact is Logan Stenberg going to make at the next level?

LS: Logan Stenberg is a hard worker, first and foremost. I’m gonna come in with a lot of determination. I’m a smart guy that understands offensive line play. I plan on doing things the right way at the next level. I’m gonna block my man until the whistle gets blown. I’m gonna come in every day ready to put my best foot forward and give it my best shot. I’m gonna work hard to be a great player.
