"A taller guard prospect who looks a bit tight in the hips and struggles to quickly get out of his stance and reach a defender off his frame. Doesn’t redirect real well laterally, isn’t a mirror player in the pass game and needs to get his long arms on defenders in order to be effective. Isn’t real flexible when asked to keep his base under him in pass protection. Gets upright, can be jolted on contact and overwhelmed into the backfield.
However, works his hands quickly to gain inside leverage and stick through contact. Does a nice job working in tandem though, keeps his head on a swivel, is quick to recognize stunts/blitzes and has enough quickness/power to keep the inside of the pocket clean.
Displays a decent initial burst when asked to get out to the second level, can drop his pad level when trying to cut down defenders, but isn’t the most coordinated into contact. Is a bit slow out of his stance, takes him a while to get those long legs uncoiled and looks tight when asked to break down.
Does a decent job through contact, using his length to gain leverage with his hands and seal initially. But is more of a catcher/sealer in the run game than aggressive in-line guy. Isn’t a lineman who will drive anyone off the ball and relies more so on his ability to step and seal, which because of his size/length is only average.
Impression: A tall, long guard who isn’t a top-tier athlete and will struggle consistently with leverage at the next level."
