PROJECTED ROUND FA
Bio:
Junior college transfer who started two seasons at center and was named Honorable Mention All-Sun Belt in 2016.
Pos:
Short but explosive center who plays smart, tough football. Fires off the snap, keeps his feet moving and quickly gets his hands into defenders. For the most part plays with good knee bend and proper leverage. Nicely adjusts or recovers to pick up oncoming blitzes. Sets with a wide base, stays square and is a solid position blocker. Effectively quarterbacks the offensive line and keeps his head on a swivel.
Neg:
Lack of height is a problem as he’s overwhelmed by opponents. Average skill sliding in space.
Analysis:
McMeans is a hard-working center with height limitations but possesses the ability and versatility to latch onto a roster that keeps nine offensive linemen.
