Combine 40: 5.73 - Pro Day 40: N/A - Position Rank: 23 of 30


Positives: Good hand punch... Very solid run blocker... Very solid drive blocker... Does a nice job maintaining pad level and getting leverage in the running game... Can open some holes... Does a nice job on short pulls... Can get to the second level... Solid flexibility and body control... Can seal linebackers from the ball... Solid but not great short area mobility... Does a nice job sealing inside... Re-sets his feet well, works hard to regain footing once initial block is defeated... Aggressive, mean streak... Good motor, relentless, plays to the whistle... Doesn't always look pretty but is always in there fighting... Better run blocker than pass protector.

Negatives: Not a natural bender... Stands up out of his stance in pass protection... Leans into his blocks and can lose balance... Hands gets too wide... Allows defenders to get into his body and can be turned at LOS... Can be knocked off his anchor and walked back... Marginal lateral range... Can be slow getting in front of stunts and delayed blitzes... Doesn't generate a lot of power at POA... Doesn't appear to be very patient, loses focus at times.
