Tackle to tackle production. Has shown more discipline with his weight from the Senior Bowl (370) to Alabama’s pro day (347). Weighed in at 354 at the Combine. Will always struggle with his girth.

Terrence Cody Alabama Nose Tackle 2010 NFL Draft

Terrence Cody may become a hot commodity with all the 3-4 teams if he gets himself in shape. The San Diego Chargers are suffering on defense because of the season ending injury to Nose tackle Jamal Williams. The way Ourlads Scouting Services LLC sees Cody:

Junior college transfer. Will be a two year starter for the Tide. A two-down run player that occupies space and blockers. Wide body that can stack at the point. Can be tripped up with low and reach blocks. Comes off the ball high. Strong to neutralize and control blocks. Can stack a double team at the line of scrimmage. Marginal agility and ability to change direction. Can be explosive in a small area. Battles in close quarters. Strong upper body. Thick waist and lower body. Gets upfield push. Also used as a lead blocking back at times.
