STRENGTHS
Tall, long lineman with good overall girth. Has the length to prevent tackles from reaching the quarterback, has quick enough feet to mirror and can widen to anchor. Shows good mobility for his size once he gets his body in motion, often pulling and leading runs downfield. Overpowers linebackers directly in his path, very tough to get off his block once engaged. Powerful when balanced on drive blocks, keeps his legs churning to push the pile. Flashes attitude to take his man away from piles as the whistle blows.
WEAKNESSES
Height and tendency to play with high pad level cause him to give ground at times, especially when he's slow to get his hands up. Defenders can get their hands into his chest and pop off to make plays at the line. Leans and bends at the waist, relying on his length to push away defenders instead of moving his sometimes-heavy feet. Must prove he can come off the ball quick and low, tends to raise up on contact to allow opponents to slip past him. Pass pro awareness in inconsistent, will fail to keep his eyes moving to find late blitzers. Can be out-quicked in space, as well as defenders attacking plays before he gets his body moving behind the line off the snap.

Hey, I remember this guy! He was a total beast in Madden 13 for me; I used him as a long-snapper, and he did well as a starter too.
On a serious note, I'm glad that we got this guy off of waivers. He's a good prospect coming from a school known for producing offensive linemen. Has the size and length for tackle, but has played guard primarily. I like him more than Washington or Person, that's for damned sure.

Mayock Said Robinsinson reminded him of Pace, too. I don't see it...
Pace was an excellent pass protector from day 1.

His number's got to be 007.
Only to fit it on the uniform, you have to shrink the two 0's and stack them.

I wouldn't get too excited by him yet Slappy. Not being able to crack that depth chart over there isn't exactly a nice calling card. Did some reading on Panther boards and it seemed he was well liked by the org as OT and some felt that maybe the team decided he didn't have the feet for it. They replaced him with a giant french canadian, btw, so the thread was pretty funny.
If I'm him I am immediately pushing for a job on special teams.
