Assessing the talent: With his size, arm span and height, offensive tackle position is more than likely.

Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 95% Iowa, Nebraska, and Michigan State stand out to him right now. There’s a good possibility of a Husker visit early on, if not he looks to take one after the season.

He's a bit slow to play tackle, isn't he?

OT is more about footwork and technique. Hand and foot placement is stressed so much in college.

Defense has to chase, offense knows where their going.

 
offensive lineman for the WEST COAST OFFENSE are a rare commodity. Either you get an experienced guy or you go with raw talent that you can work with. Usually that raw talent is slower, but they usually absorb the information much better then an offensive tackle who has grown up in a run based offense.

 
You would be hard pressed to find a big tackle in the Nfl that ran better than about a 5.2. Some of the smaller ones, or teams that use smaller ones (the green bay packers come to mind) might be a bit quicker, but for the most part, 40 speed is not important to a tackle. You think Dan Vili Waldrop ever broke the 5.5 barrier? I think not.

 
Isn't the 10-yard dash more important for OLs?

there are a few tests that are important in determining if you want to offer an offensive lineman or not. Some of those include

The Angle Drop

The Mirror Dodge

The Square Drill

The Wave

The Fold

The Pull

And the Set in turn test

Coaches use those drills more so then how fast a recuit can run in a 40 yard dash or even the 10 yard dash when it comes to offensive lineman

 
still, 5.4 seems really slow.......can a guy that slow have "quick feet"?

big guys are nice, but i will take a guy at 275 who can run a 4.9 or 5.0

just MHO.......

If Eugene Monroe (#2 player in last years class) had committed to Nebraska, would anyone be talking about his 40 time?

He ran it in the 5.5 range.

 
I would like to see a 275 lb guy who ran a 4.9 protect the backside of a quarterback from a defense end like adam carriker or jay moore, who are that big and faster.

 
well figure it out for yourself.......did FL, FSU, OU, ND, UT offer this guy? no, big, fat slow guys don't make it anymore, on defense or offense.....they can't react quickly enough.....see any slow guys playing in the SEC? a few, but damn few

All teams go after guys who run anywhere between 5.2-5.6. It's not uncommon for a team to offer and have other teams follow with an offer. In fact, Nebraska was the first to offer Meno holt, now look at how many teams have offered him. When you land a top5 recruting class, other teams begin to pay attention of who you go after.
