Overview

Nearly declared for the 2007 NFL Draft, but decided to come back for a senior year and assure himself a first round grade. In actuality, his draft grade will most likely be the same.

Strengths

Technique-is great leading the run or pass. Perfect technician who finishes plays. Seen a lot of snaps at Ohio State. Good first punch. Smart, effective.

Weaknesses

Will not "wow" you in any one area. Didn't show a lot of progress his senior year. Not the dominant figure we thought he might be.

Projection

Going into the season we thought first round, but he has been surpassed by other tackles and should still be a first day selection, but isn't what we thought he was back in September.

Predicted Round: Round 1

Snowplow run blocker but he's got quick enough feet to handle most speed rushers. Improved technique (less leaning, better hand punch) will solidify him 1st round.
