John Simpson, Clemson - OG2

STRENGTHS

—Mean, road-grader style run-blocker who will latch on with strong hands and drive defenders out of the rushing lane.

—Experienced in a zone-blocking scheme but has the body type for a power scheme if needed.

—Awesome length (34u215b" arms) that he uses well on reach blocks.

—Played well when asked to move on pulls and traps; can get out in front of screens.

—Checks the box for NFL power right out of the gate; profiles as a starting right tackle.
