Walton, JD Baylor 6025 300 5.23
A three-year starter that transferred from Arizona State. Has
done both the shotgun snap in the spread and conventional
snap to the quarterback under center. Position/wall off type
blocker. Creates inside running lanes by turning the down
defender. Solid on the block back or “choke” block. Plays on his
feet. Good agility and balance in close quarters. Plays with a
good base and works to finish his blocks. Will drop his head at
times in pass protection but generally slides and adjusts his
mirror to wall off defender. Good hand quickness to lock out and
position hands on the breast plate and get push on his target.
Strong and crafty, but needs to be more consistent with his
ability to recover and anchor in pass protection. Good arm
length for position. Can improve his lower body strength to anchor
a bull rush. Generally plays with good knee bend. Consistent, tough,
smart, and has outstanding leadership qualities. OSR: 27/40. Third/
fourth round. (A-33 3/8, H-9 1/4, BP-24, 10-1.79).
