Comments:
2/14/2010- vs. VT (replay)- Very good size, tall and thick. Plays in a 4 down lineman set and lining up over the C and LG. Shows good quickness. Gets bottled up 1 on 1 (1st 14:16). Does a good job getting into backfield on a run but then is blocked at the legs (1st 11:52). Gets held at the line (1st 11:15). Manhandled on this pass play (1st 10:09). It could be that he doesn't have great upper body strength. Throws his man to the ground #70, Sergio Render (1st 10:01). Held up at the line again, this time by the C, #63 Matt Tuttle (1st 5:01). Isnt showing much in the way of pass rush or pass rush moves. Seems to get too upright and doesn't move the pile back. His backup, #97, comes in and blows back a double team (1st 3:49).

Pass rush is not his strength. He has only had 1 sack each year in 06, 07, and 08, and this year had none.
