  • After having a quarterback and a premiere pass rusher, having a blindside tackle that can protect your quarterback is how you build a team in the NFL. Evan Neal, the left tackle out of Alabama is one of the best offensive lineman in the entire draft. Not only did Evan Neal dominate as a left tackle in his final year in college, but he also has experience playing in multiple roles. Last season he played as the right tackle and the year before he played at left guard. His versatility combined with his athleticism to mirror pass rushers makes him a very intriguing prospect. His ability to mirror is one of his best traits by far. In this video, I looked at his abilities as he makes his way to the NFL. In my opinion, he should be a Top 5 pick in the NFL Draft.

    What do you guys think about Evan Neal? Is he the best offensive lineman in the NFL Draft?

    In my opinion, he should 100% be the first overall pick to Jacksonville. They need to protect Trevor Lawrence at all costs, and Neal has the highest ceiling AND highest floor of any of the offensive linemen this year. I don’t think it’s a debate between him, Ickey, and Cross. He’s a better pass protector than Ickey, and he’s a better run blocker than Cross. I’m not a Jacksonville fan, but they better not mess this up. Draft. Evan. Neal.

      Picking Neal would also make the rest of the o line in front of Lawrence better. Neal at LT would let Walker Little slide to RT, which would be an upgrade over Taylor.
      LT: Neal
      LG: FA/? (I'd like to see them take Ed Ingram later in the draft)
      C: Linder
      RG: Barch
      RT: Little

      Agree with the position, but I'm taking Icky instead. 1A and 1B though. I just think Icky is a better run blocker then Neal is a pass blocker, and I think Icky is athletic enough and coachable to improve in that area. High IQ and good character, plus he plays angry and violent. You can tell he loves playing football.
      I think Neal will be good though. I think like Andrew Thomas he'll need a year to adjust, but wouldn't be upset if they took him. Cross would be the #1 offensive linemen in most drafts, and maybe he be the best of the three, but watching games and highlights, he seems slightly behind at this point in his development.
      Impossible to predict how some 20 year old college kid is can pan out in 5 years, so who knows.

    Not the best run blocker, but he's an elite pass protector which is far more important at the Tackle position and overall is more important in a pass heavy league.

      He just gave up 3 first half sacks to DeMarcus Lawrence... Could easily have been 6
      Cowboys rookie Left tackle... Tyler Smith is a much better player
      I do realize that this comment is being posted after having the benefit of seeing both players in action on a NFL field... But Neal was thoroughly embarrassed on Monday night football for the entire World to see

      It always showed on the tape but got accentuated. Problems were always there but people drink the hype kool aid (including myself, but this specific lesson has taught me a lot about scouting tackles I'll say that)
      You can see the physical problems on a lot of the plays he shows even while hes just gassing him up with no clue what he was talking about.
      All the balance and mirror problems are there just not showcased against polished NFL athletes most of the time he was in college. If he really fixes his stuff I still think he can be ok as a tackle but tbh waiting another year for a currently ass tackle to become a lower level NFL starter is fucking crazy. He can be a solid power guard and right now translates there much better and more immediate

      @@takeovamxbc3403 Funny you should ask 😂
      I have talked a lot about Alt both on youtube and twitter and I don't like him, hes overrated. Different kind of player than Neal because he has less anchor/power and actually pretty damn nice feet but he gets high in the run game the same and loses that leverage a lot climbing to the next level. He also leans a shit ton because of his lack of power and how high he naturally is. Its gonna get him caught in the next level by guys working speed, power, and hands at the NFL level but I do think he can be a solid guy in the league still. More of a late 1 type of guy though imo

    • @rjharrold2907
      @rjharrold2907 Před 7 měsíci

      Not having the feet deficiencies Neal has will help him be a bit better than Neal as a tackle naturally but Neal is a guard so hes pretty much the actual tackle equivalent. I'd probably comp Alt to Nate Solder right now, I mean its the same fucking build
