A Scout’s Take on Darnell Wright and the Jalen Carter Situation

Last night was the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft, and as expected, the Chicago Bears chose an offensive tackle which was one of their primary needs. The player selected was Tennessee tackle Darnell Wright, who has starting experience at both right and left tackle. He is perhaps the best pass-blocking tackle in this Draft and can be nasty as a run blocker.

My only concern about Wright early on in the process was if he could get out and play in space and be as productive as he is at the line of scrimmage.
