With regard to the OL, they have totally overlooked the "nasty, aggressive" aspects of a players toolbox of skills, as things to look for in a prospect. Hell, the first thing that ever caught my attention out of Whitworth, was the year he played LG. I remember him rolling on the ground, fighting some DL man. Immediately, I thought to myself, that guy is going to be a star for a long time.
Passive players don't last on the OL.
You can get by on size and athleticism for so long.
Look at the other TAMU OL to jump to the NFL. Teams rave about their size and athleticism. But not much else.
So far the only one showing out is Jake Matthews, who probably shouldn't have been drafted so high but last name!
