Scouting Report: Strengths
- Does a nice job on the second level, moving upfield quickly and showing the flexibility and balance to land blocks in space.
- Quick-footed with smooth movement skills to cover a large area. Rangy with above average lateral ability. Bursts off the snap and sets up quickly with little wasted motion.
- A smooth athlete with terrific mobility and footwork, staying light on his feet. Has the lateral range, natural shuffle movements, and lower body quickness to mirror speed rushers.
- Has the agility, technique, and size to contribute early in his professional career. Quick, active hands to latch on to defenders.
- Dips shoulder and moves his feet to get outside leverage when needed. Strong and low coming out of his stance, effective in short-yardage situations.
- An agile mover who puts his length to good use, using his hands aggressively and landing solid initial punches. Dotson-Oyetade can move to the second level as a run blocker, with the coordination and balance to hit moving targets.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- A short-area blocker with limited range and doesn't consistently get to the second level. Will play undisciplined at times, especially in space. Lacks a finishing attitude.
- Is a little too much of a waist bender, and Dotson-Oyetade doesn’t play with ideal power and functional strength. Most concerning - he often gets caught dropping his head, a bad habit that will have to be corrected.
- Raw as a pass protector, looking choppy and unnatural when moving back into his set, often playing too upright.
