BIO: Former offensive lineman used almost exclusively as a lead blocker.
POSITIVES: Nasty fullback who enjoys physical contact. Explodes into blocks, jolts opponents at the point of attack and controls them once engaged. Can shuffle his feet in pass protection, displays adequate blocking vision and plays with leverage. Runs much better than his 40 time. Quickly picks up stunts or twists and a solid short-yardage runner who carries the pile.
NEGATIVES: Not quick out of his stance or effective on the second level. Has difficulty finishing blocks.
ANALYSIS: A big, tough lead blocker, Banna possesses the mental skills to play at the next level, yet falls shy in the size/speed department. Could develop into a blocking back at the next level for a team willing to throw away the stopwatch.
