Bodine is probably the easiest guy to get a read on. He lacks proper functional strength to anchor and has shorter than average arms to win at first contact. It's hard to maintain and drive through blocks when you lack these two qualities without refined and excellent technique, which you hit on repeatedly and immensely.
Solid 2 thumbs up.
Alexander obviously thought coaching could overcome his liabilities. When you're dealing with functional strength and short arms you definitely have difficult things to overcome.
But he would not be the first good offensive lineman with short arms and less than desirable strength.
Hope Alexander can get it done. We should know by the end of this season.
