Summary

Two year starter for Gators at OC and All American in 1997. Solid college player, plays with a lot of pride and enthusiasm and is very effecient leader of Florida OL and does not make very many mistakes. He is a position blocker that does a nice job walling off and he uses his feet well, but he is not a power player despite decent weight room numbers. He lacks explosion and and can be over matched by a bull rusher. He must show some improvement in his playing strength and explosion on the next level. He does a decent job of mirror and slide and is at least adequate in pass pro unless he gets into a short area "fist fight." He is better at angle blocking than engaging big NTs and he should be a quality player if he faces a lot of 4-3 defenses. He is a solid "what you see is what you get" type player.
