Quenton Nelson OG ND
Strengths: Excellent size for the position and displays excellent strength in game situations. Road grader who quickly resets the line of scrimmage in the run game as an inline blocker. Displays excellent athleticism on designed pulls and is highly effective in space at creating second level blocks and breaking open running lanes in the run game. Rarely gives ground when pass blocking. Intelligent as a pass blocker, rarely fooled by blitzes and easily passes off blocks, switches assignments with ease when necessary, and looks for a player to block when one isn't readily presented. Good technician who will maintain good blocks through hand chops, rips, and other handfighting by opposing DLs. Effective as a second level blocker in the screen game and knows how to time moving to block the screen correctly. Consistency could be most impressive aspect of his game, he rarely has a bad play and is a high effort player who doesn't take plays off.
Weaknesses: Occasionally misses assignments when pulling or blocking in space. Occasionally plays too high and allows himself to be driven back by an effective bull rush or by a strong DT who wins the leverage battle. Can be overzealous in chasing down blocks at times, going as far as crossing the formation to try to block incoming edge blitzers, and this has at times allowed pressure to come from the gap he vacated. Could improve footwork.
Other: "Safe Bet" prospect, likely to be high quality starting OG in NFL.
Player Comparison: Kevin Zeitler
