THE GOOD

– Great size and powerful frame
– Quick out of his stance, good reaction to snap count
– Good play strength with particularly powerful hips
– Keeps a wide base to help maintain power in his anchor, and his drive blocks
– Solid anchor with efficient footwork to give up minimal ground
– Solid overall athletic ability with good lateral agility
– Good nasty demeanor that is needed for guard — highly competitive and finishes plays
– His punch is powerful and neutralizes power when his placement is correct

THE BAD

– Punch placement tends to be a bit wide, and he keeps his elbows too wide by default, which gives up his chest
– Tends to play a bit tall at times, losing his knee bend and limiting power
– Adequate latch strength, stronger DTs can break away from his blocks
– Hand placement and footwork when reach blocking is inconsistent, he isn’t able to consistently get his body around to seal off defenders
– Inconsistent at fitting into his blocks when climbing to the second level, takes poor angles
– Drops his head and lunges in space when pulling or climbing, leading to whiffs
