Summary

He is another athletic type LOT that has come out of nowhere to become a fairly hot NFL prospect.. He has gone from a finesse and athletic undersized LOT, into a 295 lb. guy that can run and move. He has a background at OG and OT, but is really a fit at LOT. He is still an angular type player that has success with his feet more than his power. He has pretty good slide and mirror ability on pass protection, and although he has some trouble with outside speed rusher, he does a good overall job in the passing game. He is a position run blocker that is not real explosive or powerful at the POA, but he uses his body well to wall off. He needs to improve his explosiveness and overall power to be more effective on the NFL level, but he is a very interesting guy.
