DeMarcus Dobbs of Georgia ~ 6.2/285
"Possesses a thick frame and a strong lower half. Does a nice job maintaining his balance on slide down blocks, anchoring through contact and setting the edge when run at. Has a motor that runs nonstop and works extremely hard from the backside in pursuit. Displays good natural anchor strength when run at and has the ability to get under the pad level of opposing blockers, keep his base down and hold the point. However, needs to do a better job keeping his head up and seeing the target he wants to strike. Too often his head goes down, his hands get outside the shoulders of his target, he loses balance easily and ends up on the ground.
Isn't a real explosive pass rusher off the edge. Doesn't exhibit much of a burst out of his stance and isn't a guy who will be able to reach the corner at the next level. Needs to do a better job protecting his frame and getting his hands up into blocks. Consistently allows opposing linemen to get into his chest plate and control him on contact. Does exhibit average short-area quickness in space, but isn't real sudden through contact and struggles to slip blocks once engaged.
Impression: Has the size and natural power to anchor vs. the run game in the NFL and can consistently set the edge. Now, needs to clean up some of his technique, but looks like a guy who could mature into a capable two-down reserve type lineman in the NFL."

"Bio: Full-time starter the past two seasons, posting 28/1/3.5 as a senior and 30/4.5/5 as a junior.
Positive: Hardworking defensive line prospect with poor size/speed numbers.. Gives effort every down, chases the action hard, and draws extra attention from opponents. Tough to move off the line, effectively redirects to ball carriers, and wraps up when tackling. Flashes the ability to make plays down the line of scrimmage. Plays with good pad level.
Negative: Lacks great speed in pursuit or off the edge. Does not display first-step quickness. Must do a better job using his hands to protect himself, and he's slow shedding blocks.
Analysis: Dobbs was a dependable lineman in George's three-man front, but he lacks the size, growth potential, and athleticism to be anything other than a backup at the next level."
