POSITIVES
— Good athletic ability, lateral quickness and recovery balance.
— Skilled pass protector with the discipline to stay square and inside-out and to redirect to cut off inside counters; shows the range to reach his landmarks against high-side rushes.
— Does a very good job of taking away his hands at the last second to disrupt the timing of rushers and leave them without anything to work off.
— Smoothly transitions into his anchor with good lower-half mobility and bend to get under the bull rush.
— Has some jolt in his hands to cave in adjacent rushers when uncovered and when bumping and feeding on combo blocks.
— Loose hips and quick feet out of his stance to reach his landmarks in the zone run game.
— Easy mover on pulls and screens with the awareness to locate the most dangerous threat.
