The man mountain measured 6'8 384 at the combine and presents an interesting opportunity for us in the 2nd round. Before we locked down Collins I wasn't interested in him because his size leads to serious concerns about pass blocking. He tends to stay too high and I could see him getting burnt at the NFL level by faster DEs. However, with Collins holding down RT for at least a few years adding Faalele could be a great move. His run blocking is elite and bringing him in as the 6th lineman in those jumbo packages we run could be a scary sight for opposing defenses. Cappa, Collins and Faalele on one side of the line would be one hell of a run blocking trio for Mixon to run behind. This would allow him to be useful to us while also developing into a potential starter in a few years once he learns to bend a bit more. Certainly something to think about.
His highlights are a lot of fun to watch. Once he locks in its over.
Do we think a jumbo package/depth guy is something they consider in the first or maybe see if he slides to the second?
Id be interested in the second. In the first id go bpa now.
