Scouting Report: Strengths
- Anchors against larger defenders in the middle; resets hands to maintain distance. Athletic enough to help on nose tackle then pick up twist or late blitzer. Mirrors quick interior rushers. Looks to help the center when uncovered.
- Effective grappling in the phone booth, with the upper-body strength and strong hands to outbattle defenders. Carvin also shows a good understanding of angles when moving out to the second level
- He will have a chance to develop as a right tackle or possibly inside at guard, where Carvin 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.
- Outstanding in the screen game, both because of his instincts to deceive defenders and mobility to get out in front and land blocks.
- An agile mover who puts his length to good use, using his hands aggressively and landing solid initial punches. Carvin can move to the second level as a run blocker, with the coordination and balance to hit moving targets.
- Fundamentally sound and understands blocking angles, using body positioning to his advantage. Disciplined awareness and good intelligence.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- His kick slide is inconsistent, and he’ll often set too high; he’ll get pushed around by speed-to-power guys in the NFL.
- Susceptible to speed rushers. Has only average quickness off the snap and doesn't possess the acceleration or arm length to corral defenders once they cross his face.
- He’s going to get pushed backward by speed to- power rushers on the next level, and he’ll potentially have a rough time if asked to protect on an island.
