Strengths

• A smooth mover and covers a lot of ground, working hard to mirror rushers; agile and keeps his feet moving.
• Tall, long, athletic pass protector. Generally gets out of three-point stance with good knee bend and a wide base.
• Solid positional run blocker who flashes the nasty demeanor and killer instinct scouts covet.
• Awareness is above-average for his limited experience. Sells trap block and can turn to seal. Fluid getting to and adjust at the second level.
• Above-average football smarts and general intelligence. Plays with a nasty streak. Solid character and work ethic.

Weaknesses

• Attacks when necessary, though he won't consistently dominate and can lose balance overextending.
• Stops his feet after initial contact, relying on length but allowing defender to get the corner or spin inside.
• Height can be a detriment in short-yardage, defender can get under his pads to hold the line.
• Too often is pushed back into the pocket during pass protection becaus~ he bends at the waist rather than at the knees. Relies more on precise angles than physicality in the running game.
• Not physically imposing and has average overall strength. Upper body gets over his feet too often and he easily loses his balance.
