Three-year starter at left guard. Wide athletic body. A powerful
man that plays with a good base. Has an ornery and competitive
streak. Can drop his butt and anchor a charging defender. His
natural position is left guard. Will need developmental time to
play the other three line slots not including center. Controls the
defender with his hands. Athletic in pass protection. He does have a tendency to lobster grab a defender with his hands outside
the frame and hold. Needs technique work in his overall game. A
dominant physical player that has a good change of direction.
Exhibits an explosive punch then locks out and drives the down
defender. A mauler that gets push. The team runs behind him. Runs
his feet on contact. Explosive on short pulls and fold blocks. Stays
on his feet. Doesn’t go to the ground. Must work to bend his knees.
Can get high at times. Long arms and big hands help him keep
position on the pass rusher. Light feet in pass pro for a big man.
