OverviewA Big body and fairly mobile Okeafor is an above average pass and run blocker. His pass blocking skills have allowed Curtis Pulley to have a huge year. He has the athletic ability to play offensive guard, too. His versatility should land him a spot in the league. Okeafor was selected First-Team All-Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference for the 2009 college football season as voted on by the MEAC head football coaches and sports information directors. All-America tackle Robert Okeafor is a repeat first-team selection, he also played guard this season.
StrengthsHe is likely to move inside at the next level,and is also an impressive athlete for his size and level of competition. He ran in the high 5.1s in his 40, put up 24 reps, and though performing slightly below average on his three-cone and shuttle runs, his footwork in short bursts showed teams what they needed to see in a late-round pick or priority free agent. He is a very hard worker, and a high a character player
WeaknessesA bit short-armed and slow to redireect for LT he may be able to play RT for a run dominant team or move inside to OG. Still a bit raw in pass protection, can get too high and fail to mirror pass rushers with quick change of direction.
ProjectionGreat workouts may move him up to the late 6th but more likely he will be selected in the 7th or be a priority UDFA.
