SIZE/PHYSICAL TRAITS (4/5)

Average center size at 6-3, 306
Arms are on the shorter side at 31 3/4″ — can get outreached at times
May be pigeonholed at center due to size/length and limitations as a drive blocker

PASS BLOCKING (26/30)

Shows good sustain in pass protection
Anchor against power rushers isn’t as firm as desired — gets walked back into the quarterback’s lap a little too often
Zero issues matching quickness on the interior

RUN BLOCKING (15/20)

Excellent zone-blocker — takes good angles to second level blocks and has a high success rate as a pulling lineman
Might be scheme specific — doesn’t generate much movement as a drive blocker
Can generate some movement when he has a big running start as he does on a lot of zone blocking concepts, but aside from that, doesn’t appear to have great natural power
Good positional run blocker — does a great job of sealing and taking advantage of blocking angles
Very good combo blocker

TECHNIQUE (13.5/15)

Patient pass blocker
Keeps pads low and maximizes leverage advantage
Active feet to slide and mirror
Consistent hand placement and punch timing
Does a great job of re-fitting his hands when his initial punch doesn’t land cleanly
Can play a little top-heavy as a run blocker

MOVEMENT SKILLS (10/10)

Elite offensive line athlete
Excellent foot quickness
Excellent body control
Crazy range as a pulling lineman — reaches landmarks most lineman couldn’t dream of
Fluid mover in space as a puller
Excellent recovery athleticism

MENTAL PROCESSING (9/10)

FUNCTIONAL STRENGTH/POWER (7/10)

Functional strength is adequate but anchor strength is not ideal — gets walked back into the quarterback’s lap a little too easily at times, although he does re-anchor and recover well in most cases
Doesn’t generate much movement as a drive blocker

OVERALL GRADE: 84.50/100.00 — 1ST ROUND — Quality starter with Pro Bowl potential

NFL COMPARISON: Jason Kelce
