CapeBreton Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I actually thought Tenuta looked look in the combine drills but his testing numbers were terrible, good competition for Tommy Doyle I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollars 2 donuts Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 19 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Lance Zierlein take on NFL. com Draft Projection: Priority free agent Overview Tall tackle with predictable leverage issues, creating difficulties in both run and pass phases. Tenuta is a segmented mover who lacks desired play strength. His issues are made worse by erratic hand placement, but coaching could improve his hands, which would alleviate some of his strength concerns. He won't shine as a drive blocker or move blocker. And his pass-protection issues are more physical in nature, making them harder to correct. He's a potential undrafted free agent and could struggle to compete at the pro level. Strengths Started at both tackle positions. Father is a longtime coach. Pretty fair athlete getting into space on pulls. Uses size to wall off linebackers on climbs. Inside hands will make him stronger in pass protection. Protection looked better by the end of last season. Hustles out to meet edge speed with pass sets. Weaknesses Disappointing length for his size. Height creates natural trouble with leverage. Lacks explosive lift into contact. Below-average lateral movement. Upper-body strength and core power are a concern. Below-average punch and control in pass sets. Pass slides are heavy and segmented. Below-average anchor. Holy mackerel. But besides that how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newcam2012 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 19 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: Strengths Solid positional run blocker who flashes the nasty demeanor and killer instinct scouts covet. Quick out of his stance with the footwork to be effective in front of screens. Willing to get out in front of ballcarriers to take out defensive backs and linebackers. Best on the outside because of his height and athleticism, but is capable of blocking on the move. Adequate foot quickness to remain outside. Can get to the second level with surprising agility when adjusting to moving defenders. Underrated athleticism, agility, balance, and even straight-line speed to contribute. Has the agility, technique, and size to contribute early in his professional career. Quick, active hands to latch on to defenders. Weaknesses High-cut and doesn't bend knees well. Set in pass protection is high, and that affects the power and ability to anchor and causes him to bend at the waist. Height can be a detriment in short-yardage, defender can get under his pads to hold the line. Has inconsistent footwork and body positioning and needs to improve his blocking angles. Loses leverage battles and plays with high pad level. Can be late off the snap. Flashes the ability to move his man with his hands, but is not yet consistent in this area. https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Luke-Tenuta-OL-VirginiaTech he is an OT/OG prospect. Still need that interior OG/C IMO We got the depth now on the Oline! Only injuries can prevent the Bills from winning it all. Clearly, have the best roster in the league with very little holes. Stay healthy and things look fantastic. Can't wait for the season. Just now, Rocket94 said: Gert him coached up! Pro Bowl Bound! He will.

Agent 91 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) They already screwed the pooch on another OL from VT. From what I read he has short arms and a slow mover with less than ideal upper and core strength. Weaknesses Disappointing length for his size. Height creates natural trouble with leverage. Lacks explosive lift into contact. Below-average lateral movement. Upper-body strength and core power are a concern. Below-average punch and control in pass sets. Pass slides are heavy and segmented.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Unathletic too tall lineman. Barely a camp body. Would have preferred a S or an OG. I wanted an OT out of the top four rounds but gave away a pick and drafted an undersized LB. Oh well. Like I said they got a starting corner. The rest will be fighting for jobs.

Cash Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 This is the only pick I can’t talk myself into. On paper, doesn’t look good. Too tall to play G or C, terrible RAS, short arms for a tackle, especially considering his height. I guess my hope is that he’s terrible at the technique of combine drills, so his RAS isn’t representative of his on-field athleticism. Whatever, I don’t love it but not gonna be bothered by a sixth round pick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
