Scouting Journals for Dennis Uzochukwu

Uber toolsy offensive tackle prospect with some of the best pure physical traits in what is a banner year at the position nationally. Measured in at over 6-foot-5, 280 pounds as a senior. Has elite length with 35-inch arms. Pairs the big frame with explosive movement skills that are among the best at offensive tackle in the cycle. Moves like a tight end while lined up at right tackle. Very light-footed and nimble. Explodes out of his stance and works to the second level with ease. Shows good physicality as a run blocker. Works to finish blocks once engaged. Can sink his hips and drive with power. Lateral agility looks to be rare at this stage. Still developing from a technical standpoint. Will need to hone his pass set. Was committed to Georgia State for much of the process before blowing up as a senior. Also plays basketball, flashing his length and movement skills as a rim protector. Later birthday, turning 18 years old in April of his senior year. Early round upside given development at the college level.
