GARY BYRD

Position: OT Class: Sr School: Clemson Conference: ACC Ht., Wt.: 6'4, 310 40 Time: 5.32 Grade: 3.43

BIO: Honorable Mention All-ACC pick as a senior. Saw action with the first unit during four games of his sophomore campaign before then moved into a full-time role as a junior. POSITIVES: Big, strong lineman best blocking for the run. Plays with good lean, extends his hands and keeps opponents away. Breaks down well, turns defenders off the line or engulfs them at the point of attack. Jolts opponents with his hands and controls them once engaged in a block. NEGATIVES: Lumbers and not light on his feet. Lacks balance, range and body control. Steps out protecting the edge rather than shuffling his feet and does not make proper use of blocking angles or body positioning. ANALYSIS: Played tackle at Clemson but best inside at guard at the next level. Offers decent potential as he physically matures. PROJECTION: Mid Sixth Round
