Scouting Journals for Carius Curne

Freakish athlete along the offensive line. Measured in at 6-foot-4, 320 pounds with 33.5-inch arms and 9.5-inch hands prior to his senior season. Carries his weight well, looking like a much lighter player to the eye. Registers as an elite athlete in the combine setting, running a 4.8 second 40-yard dash and posting an eye-popping 4.3 second short shuttle at college camps prior to his junior season. Lines up as a two-way standout at his high school, playing left tackle and along the defensive line. Shows rare movement skills with twitch that immediately stands out. Moves at a different speed than most top offensive linemen. Excellent when working to the second level. Able to reach all the way to cornerbacks in blocking perimeter passes. Outstanding when asked to pull. Good at the point of attack. Keeps his feet moving once engaged and creates a big-time push. Projects as a high-end and potentially elite run blocker. Also flashes his elite athleticism as a defensive lineman. Would be a blue-chip prospect on that side of the ball, as well. Runs down plays from sideline to sideline. Older for the cycle, turning 19 years-old in December of his senior year. Will need to add polish as a pass protector, but has the lateral agility to develop well in that regard. Needs a runway to get a push at times, rather than simply generating pop off of the snap. Has the positional flexibility to potentially play all five spots on the offensive line. Possesses high-end potential in college football and beyond due to his phenomenal athleticism.
