Verified 6-foot-1, 275 pounds in June 2026 with a good-looking lower half and strong calves. He has a solid, moldable frame with real room for growth, particularly through his upper body, and I'd like to see him reach 285–290 without sacrificing athleticism at the next level. The length is his biggest physical limitation. I'd estimate a wingspan around 74–75 inches, which confines him to the interior. He's thrown 35 feet 4 inches in the shot put, a respectable mark for his age that lines up with the power he generates once he's engaged. What stands out first is how low…
Top Attributes
- Great flexibility and knee bend; plays low with excellent leverage. - Plays with a high motor; relentless effort and tenacity. - Good understanding of spacing and plays with quality body control and balance.
Areas to Develop
- Must see improvement in his overall athleticism and foot speed. - Needs to increase his upper body strength in order to increase strike power. - Will need to increase mass without sacrificing athletic ability; must get more explosive while getting bigger.
Film Review Notes
Mean and physical interior lineman who plays with tenacity and fire particularly in the run game. Looks to bury defenders and plays through the whistle. Active hands that stay engaged once he has hand positioning; defenders have a hard time shedding him. Plays with a quality base and body control; rarely off-balance and plays with calm feet. Good power in his lower half and does a great job using his legs to drive defenders off the ball. Needs to improve his overall movement skills; must show more short-area quickness and twitch. Lacks ideal length and struggles to strike; bowls into defenders more than initiating strikes with his hands. Good anchor ability at this level, but will need to get stronger in order to function at the next level. Stronger in the run game versus pass protection; has some struggles in open space.
