Had Humphrey declared for the 2019 draft, one could argue that he would've been the first OC off the board. He plays with very good strength and balance. At times, it looks as if he's giving very little effort, yet he manages to stalemate his defender. He threw up 25 reps as a Sr. in high school, evidencing just how strong he is. Coming from a wrestling background, his ability to win the leverage game is apparent.  That said, there are times when he plays solely from the waist up, not showing much leg drive. He'll hem his man up and finish, but won't do more than he needs. Far too often, a play is going on and he's away from it, settling. I love his upside, but hate how inconsistent he is when it comes to playing through the whistle. If one really studies his game tap agnostic of ratings and reputation, you'll see a player needing more discipline and continued coaching.
