| Jonathan Martin Scouting Report |
| Jonathan Martin - Stanford (HT: 6-5⅜ - WT: 312) |
Positives -- Versatile blocker that doesn't get trapped in the traditional left tackle mold, can play both sides of the line... Very good first step and can block the outside very well, but separates himself from the pack with his ability to block down, even in the passing game... Possesses great footwork
that allows him to block the outside edge or block down on a defense tackle, even if he's in a two-point position... Good shuffle footwork to keep himself in front of the defender... Also, has long arms and uses his hands well while pass blocking to keep defender at arm's length... Has a very methodical approach towards blocking the edge, never seems to be out of control... Solid run blocker, uses his feet to drive him forward... Always churning his legs, controls his defender by positioning his body at the right angle... Stays on his block in both the pass and run game, can block from both the two and three point stance... Has very good pad level as a blocker and uses it to stay lower than the defender, which gives him quite an advantage... Should be able to go into the NFL and fill whichever role a team needs him to.
Negatives -- Has a small tendency to not be aware of when the pocket shifts forward, so often times the defender will disengage and move up field to the quarterback... He doesn't push the pass rusher as much as he stays in his way using great footwork... If he gets beat, chances are he was overwhelmed to the inside in either the pass or run game... Not an overwhelmingly big player for a tackle, but makes up for it with a very quick first step... Concerned about how well he would handle a stronger outside rusher... A finesse guy who could slip a little if teams view him as a right tackle only.
