What NFL Draft analysts are saying about Ozzy Trapilo

Ozzy Trapilo looks like a solid early round pick, per NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein. In his evaluation, he compared Trapilo to Colton McKivitz.

“Tall tackle prospect with NFL bloodlines and a noticeable improvement in play strength last season,” Zierlein wrote in his evaluation of Trapilo. “The run-blocking tape falls below the protection tape due to leverage and adjustment limitations we frequently see with taller tackles. Trapilo won’t generate much movement in the run game, but good upper-body power helps him neutralize the edge. He operates with sound pass sets, active hands and excellent arm extension.

“He has a good feel for pocket depth with an ability to ride rushers over the top, but he will get beat by inside counters and speed-to-power rushers at times. Trapilo could operate as a swing tackle early on but his potential in pass protection gives him a good chance to become a starter.”
