Florida needs offensive linemen. JUCO prospect Branton Autry of Coffeyville Community College in Kansas is an offensive lineman. Ergo, Florida landing a commitment from Autry, as it did Wednesday afternoon, is sort of a big deal.
Autry is variously listed at around 6'5" and 320 pounds, so he has excellent size for the position, no matter whether he ends up at tackle or guard. He's also rated as a three-star prospect by the 247Sports Composite, but as a four-star player by 247Sports, specifically.
And in his highlight tape from the 2014 season, in which he was named an all-conference performer, he looks like a mauler who gets his hands on defenders and finishes plays.
