Brad Serini of Florida InterNational ~ 6.3/285
"A natural bender who can sit into his stance but lacks ideal power in his lower half in all areas of the game. Possesses some unnecessary girth through the mid-section and looks thin through his lower half and legs. Displays above-average snap and step ability and is quick to get into targets off his frame. However, doesn't generate much power on contact with his punch, and doesn't do a great job getting his hands up off the football and extending his arms. Exhibits poor hand placement outside the shoulder of defenders on contact and routinely is forced to just try to steer them away from the play than drive his man off the football. Isn't real heavy handed through the play and is easy to disengage from and struggles to stick to defenders.
Seems to get upright in pass protection, lacks a great anchor, doesn't create leverage for himself and can easily be jolted backward on contact. Will get himself in some trouble with his footwork at times, has a tendency to overstep when asked to reach defenders off his frame and too easily allows them to cross his face and get up the field. Sets too high, tends to double over at the waist and doesn't have the upper body strength to hold off defenders once they gain a step. Is a decent athlete in space, has some range and natural athletic ability, but struggles to stay compact and balanced in all areas of the game which causes him to struggle to stick to blocks.
Impression: Isn't a real physical center, but has some upside because of his athletic ability. However, he needs to tighten up his technique in all areas of the game to have a chance. A free agent at this stage though."
