Official Bio

Stars
Strengths:
   • Excellent height and bulk with long arms
   • Is stout at point of attack and can anchor
   • Great understanding of positioning / angles
   • Gets more than adequate push as run blocker
   • Mobile enough to pull and reach second level
   • Technically sound and uses proper leverage
   • Tough, physical and plays with mean streak
   • Smart w/ terrific awareness and football IQ
   • Offers a bit of positional versatility (C / OG)
   • Lots of experience versus quality competition

Weaknesses:
   • Merely average athleticism, feet and agility
   • Not overly powerful and must get stronger
   • Hands aren't active and don't have much pop
   • Stiff and is not particularly effective in space
   • Long-term health and durability are concerns

Injury History:
   • Missed two games with blood clots in lungs in 2009
   • Missed considerable action w/ sprained ankle in 2010
   • Missed three games with dislocated left ankle in 2011

Notes:
Last name is pronounced "Kahnz" --- Was a three-year starter for the Badgers after redshirting in 2008 --- Named 1st Team All-Big Ten in 2011 --- Could project to either center or guard at the next level --- A three-time Academic All-Big Ten selection --- Outstanding pedigree and is the next in a long line of blue-collar offensive lineman produced by the Wisconsin program --- Grades out just a notch below guys like Nick Mangold, Alex Mack, Maurkice Pouncey and Mike Pouncey but is clearly the top pivot in this class --- Profiles as a starter at the next level and should play in the league a long time, assuming he can stay healthy.
