Vitals

Height: 6-4

Weight: 315

Age: 21

Strengths

One of the best overall athletes in this year’s offensive tackle class, Conerly moves extremely well for a trench player, with smooth footwork and impressive fluidity when changing direction. He’s able to mirror speed rushers by exploding off the ball and taking efficient angles, setting his base and walling off the defender. He climbs well when moving up to take out linebackers in the run game, and he’s got no problems hitting moving targets when forced to lead the way out in space. The same footwork and understanding of leverage and angles serves him well on runs between the tackles, too, as he’s quick to get to his landmarks and anchor effectively against his man.

Weaknesses

While he’s got a solid enough frame, Conerly wins with angles and finesse more than power, which could cause him some problems against bigger and more powerful defensive linemen in the NFL. He’s nimble as a pass protector, more polished rushers can occasionally beat him with well-timed counter moves that put him off balance and force his punches to miss the target.

Final Analysis

A younger prospect with a super-high ceiling, Conerly is already a fairly polished blocker with plenty of starting experience at a premium position. There may be stronger, more powerful tackles in this class, but none of them have Conerly’s fluidity and athleticism, and he’ll have the opportunity to get stronger in an NFL weight room. All the tools are there for Conerly to quickly become a quality starter at left tackle in the pros, even if he’s not the most complete player just yet.

Current Projection: 2nd Round
