BIOGRAPHY: Three-year starter who has played every position on the offensive line except center. All-Conference pick after his junior and senior seasons.
POSITIVES: Well-rounded and versatile blocker with starting potential at the next level. Fundamentally sound, displays better-than-average footwork and makes good use of blocking angles. Stays with the action, jolts opponents at the point and seals them from plays.
NEGATIVES: Lacks top lateral blocking range. Over-extends or lunges into blocks in pass protection.
ANALYSIS: A durable and productive collegiate lineman, Sears is a wide-bodied blocker with starting possibilities. Likely to be used inside at guard initially, yet could fill in at the left tackle position in a pinch.
