Scouting Report: Strengths
- Lone concern is handling the superquick NFL edge rusher. Foot speed and quickness are very good, but not elite.
- Finishes and doesn't quit; competitor with a positive attitude and leadership traits that coaches admire.
- McFadden will have a chance to develop as a right tackle or possibly inside at guard, where McFadden could be an interesting prospect for a zone-blocking team. If nothing else, that versatility is enough to make him at least a quality reserve.
- Understands angles and plays with good leverage. McFadden has long arms and heavy hands, using them effectively in pass protection, and he has a strong enough initial punch to get an edge on quick sets.
- Outstanding on reach blocks, showing good initial quickness and flexibility to seal the backside. He’s a heady player who is quick to recognize and react to twists and stunts up front, and he shows a good sense of timing on combo blocks.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Tends to slip off blocks when going against bigger linemen, and McFadden too often finishes plays on the ground.
- Flashes the ability to move his man with his hands, but is not yet consistent in this area.
- While he’s solid as an athlete, he’s more comfortable moving forward as a run blocker than setting in pass protection, as he too often relies solely on his initial punch to stand up pass rushers instead of moving his feet.
- As a pass protector, he gets caught reaching and lunging when matched up against quickness.
