WEIGHT: 307


POSITIVES

—Broad shoulders with an athletic, muscular build and well-rounded thickness throughout his frame

—Solid core strength to strain through contact and anchor against the bull-rush

—Comfortable and smooth zone combo blocker with adequate movement skills to climb and locate backers

—Can hook and scoop shaded defenders with sufficient initial burst out of his stance to get to his spot

—Works hard to reset hands after initial placement is off

NEGATIVES

—Feet struggle to stay connected to his eyes and is routinely tardy on connecting to moving targets

—Easily moved off of his spot in pass protection by basic stutters and hesitations

—Inaccurate, wide hand placement allows defenders to gain control of his chest with ease

—Stood up and stalemated on angle-drive blocks without the leverage to hit, lift and drive stout run-defenders

NOTES

—24 career starts at three positions (11 at right guard, nine at left guard and four at right tackle)
