Scouting
Report:
The
Good: Tough, nasty
lineman that works hard on the pivot. Quick
off the snap into his blocks, powerful upper body and turns defenders out of the middle for the
run as well as anchoring in pass protection. Fights
with his hands, keeps his feet moving throughout the play and works to finish off opponents, staying with the action.
Efficient and plays with balance.
The
Bad: Not a nimble or agile
lineman nor overly effective in space. Lacks
bulk and the dominant base.
The
Skinny: Needs time but could
eventually develop into a starter at the next level and his work ethic gives
him a major advantage.
