Summary

Has played both OC and OT in college career and has some solid experience as a long snapper, but may not have the skills to be a snapper on the NFL level. Versatility may be his biggest asset. Can play every position on the OL and if his long snapping could improve, that would give him an additional skill. Tough guy, but plays with a lot of intelligence and savvy. Efficient player, stays on his feet, shows good overall balance and gets himself in good position. Rarely makes a mistake but is not an overpowering player and is not a great athlete. Does not really have true NFL size and explosion and he can be over powered in short area match-ups. Does not have a lot of range and probably lacks the ability to be an LOT. Has had some injury problems in the past, but has always played through the pain. Versatility will certainly get him a look, and he is another guy that might fit in nicely as a #7 or #8 OL.
