Last week we learned that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers had hosted Note Dame offensive tackle Quenton Nelson in for a private visit at One Buc Place as part of their 30 private visits for 2018 NFL Draft prospects.
As you would expect, Nelson isn’t the only offensive lineman the Bucs are using a top 30 visit on, as we have now learned from Omar Ruiz of NFL Network that the Bucs will also host UTEP guard Will Hernandez, at some point, and have already put him through a private workout.
Busy week ahead for UTEP G Will Hernandez. After a private workout with the #Colts today, starting Sunday, has visits lined up with the #Bills, #Giants, #Redskins & #Bucs. Has already visited #Saints, #Ravens, #Vikings & #Jaguars. Also had a private workout with #Cowboys & #Bucs

Hernandez started all 49 games of his collegiate career at left guard from his true freshman year to his senior season. He’s a seasoned bulldozer kind of offensive lineman who showed off his power at this year’s Senior Bowl. Hernandez is currently being projected as a late-first to early-second round pick.
