Pedersons Eagles olines had Peters, Kelce, Brooks, and Lane Johnson all being fleet footed, pull like crazy, non maulers.

I dunno.

The use of the screen pass is one of the hallmarks of the WCO schemes.

While in terms of power, I think the Osemele comparison is warranted, I think he has far more mobility and agility than Osemele.  The clips I sawm there were numerous instances where Ekwonu was 20-30 yards downfield looking for guys to block-and finding them.

His mobility makes him a fit for any offense that requires linmen to pul, whether it's on screens, traps, or counters.

Somehow I doubt we'll end up with him in either case.  But whether he fits our new schemes or not, he's a heckuva player.
