Strengths:
Good size with a large frame...Great athleticism...Very light on his feet...Quick and agile...Excellent pass protector...Smart with good awareness...Good mobility to get to the second level and pull...Moves well laterally...Natural knee bender...Technically sound...Uses his hands well...Nice balance...Outstanding work ethic...Tough...Has a fire in his belly...Lots of experience...A team leader...Still has some upside.
Weaknesses:
Has done a good job of bulking up but could stand to add a little more weight...Needs to strengthen both his upper and lower body...Is not very powerful...Doesn't get a great push in the run game...Might not be a perfect fit for every team...Has a history of minor shoulder injuries.
Notes:
A three-year starter at left tackle for the Green Wave...Began his college career weighing 265 pounds...Redshirted as a true freshman in 2004...Helped pave the way for Matthew Forté when he ran for over 2,000 yards in 2007...Might project best in a zone blocking scheme...Not quite a finished product but definitely has the raw tools to work with as well as the intangibles that will help him get the most out of his ability and maximize his potential...Underrated blocker with the talent to not only start but protect the blindside at the next level.
