Scouting Journals for Josh Conerly Jr.

On3 Consensus five-star Josh Conerly Jr. is an athletic lineman with good length. The 6-foot-5, 285-pounder worked at right tackle in San Antonio and was clearly adjusting to the speed of the action over the course of the week. While Conerly has some nice movement skills, he’ll need to increase his play strength and anchor to maximize his potential at the next level. We saw him get moved off his spot relatively easily once engaged with defensive linemen.

A modern day athletic offensive tackle prospect with a basketball background. Has a good build for the position with a big frame and plus length. Fast starter out of his stance with good foot quickness. Quickly works to second level and looks to strike in open space. Dangerous when he pulls with a powerful initial punch Flat-footed in a three-point stance with an athletic look. Shoots his hands with accuracy. Shows off his athleticism and initial quickness doubling as a defensive tackle, where he is a disruptor on that side of the ball. Frame has the ability to carry more than 300 pounds and is well proportioned. Needs to increase his functional play strength and continue improving lower body flexibility. Will also need to adjust to the speed of the game, particularly in pass protection, as he moves to the college level.
