Dude was born to be a OL. If we can now get Owens to stop falling down we should have a good running game.

Seems to have a nasty streak in him, looks to unload on people. Very nice film

With the Addition of Echols and this beast our interior will have depth and strength. We do need at least one big Tackle.

Once a Ricebird, always a Ricebird.

Holding

He'll be backing up Ivy or Thomas at guard most likely. PFF has him:

Overall offensive grade: ~54.1
Pass-blocking grade: ~61.6
Run-blocking grade: ~56.4

Who starts at center? Ashton Funk got some time there. Use em or lose em, these days.

Robert Bourdon got a lot of time, mostly at right tackle. What's his grade?

CB, '67

Is Lamont Rodgers big time ready? Blake Ivy?

Son played at Katy. Watched Echols entire career. Echols should be at center. That's his natural position and played it a ton at Katy. He's not long enough to be on the outside and not quick enough to play guard.

Think the incumbent starters going into day one of spring camp will be Bourdon - Ivy - Nabou - Echols-Rogers. Throw in the South Carolina and LSU guy into the competition. Funk will backup Nabou at center IMO. We have a bigger need at guard and Echols hasn't played center in 3 years

A lot of our anxiety comes from not seeing next year's RS-SO rotational players yet: Bourdon, Ivy, Funk & Ahfua.

Nabou (RS-SR), the 3 solid transfers, Rogers (5*) + normal progression from those 4 guys gives you an above-average line next year, IMO.

Scheming Reed to make quick throws, aiming for YAC over needing to rely on him excessively from the pocket will be a winning formula.

Also, it appears (from an untrained eye) that this mix is a plus run-blocking unit.
