I like his athleticism in space and getting to the second level. He also looks like he can be an effective guy at sealing off the back side in the ZBS. It looks like once he gets locked on a guy he's good but quick interior lineman look like they give him issues because his feet are not great.

 

Overall he looks like a solid pick that will definitely be in the mix at the C spot. 

Two of the absolute worst football games I have ever had to endure right there.  He's going to come in and work harder than the next guy. First one in last one to leave type of player. Blue collar. More athletic than you would expect from someone with his frame.  Feet and technique could use some work but has tons of raw athletic talent. Played AAU basketball during his adolescent growth spurt (5-10 to 6-4) so he retained some of that quickness through out the transition.  Smart kid (Finishing up his masters) Student of the game.  Loves the game and Hates to lose.  Has gone under the radar his entire career after being dealt some tough cards with some struggling teams.  (Aside from the Orange Bowl Season vs. Auburn)  Was one of the top OL in VA coming out of HS but never received the recognition due to a 1-9 record his senior year.  He really started to come into his own at Gaurd in 2011 on an experienced line (w/ Pasztor) but was moved to center after the line struggled.  Graded out as the top lineman in 95% of the 2013 season but was overshadowed by the struggling line rotation.  

 

Thats okay though.  He prefers it that way.  Tell him that he can't do it and he will.  Give him a chance and i'll bet he will surprise you.
