Overview

Strengths

Huge right tackle prospect with great height and wingspan. Very strong build with good feet and athleticism. Appears to be leaner than in '08. Powerful run blocker who gets low and engulfs his man. Can run some and execute short pulls. Aggressive mauler who works to finish blocks. Smooth pass blocker who can absorb a bullrush and shows the ability to mirror and slide.

Weaknesses

Too big to be very effective blocking in the open field and on the second level. Doesn't have the quickness or athleticism to play left tackle. Sometimes plays too upright, loses leverage and allows rushers to walk him back. Loses control at times and drew a number of personal fouls this season, something which must be tempered.

Projection

Middle-round RT prospect who should start for a decade. Not flashy, just physical and effective.
