That article makes me more convinced he will be a high draft choice if healthy.

At 6'8+ it would seem he might struggle in the RUN blocking part of his game as it's tough for a tall guy to bend at the knees and get low on drive run blocking. But if he's comfortable with that already.......forget it.

He will learn to pass block better as time moves on (he's already good at it) and with the frame he has it will be extremely difficult to get through or around him to bend the edge and get to the QB as a pass rusher.

health permitting.........he's going to have a very, very bright future.

I knew he had a basketball background, but I didn't know he got offered a scholarship for it by Northern Illinois. So not only did he pick the right sport, but the right school too!

scary size and agility ... adding weight slow but sure, which is smart. Have to believe he will become an NFL draft pick .. would love to know his arm span compared to his 6'10" height.

100%. the arm length will be key for him.
