2022 NFL DRAFT PROSPECT REPORT
- Name: Kenyon Green
- Position: Interior Offensive Lineman
- School: Texas A&M
- Height: 6'4"
- Weight: 323lbs
Film Watched: Alabama 2021, LSU 2021, Colorado 2021
Pro's:
- Well built, dense, broad frame
- Elite anchor; once he sets his feet, there’s no moving him off his spot
- Power transfers right through his frame and though his arms
- Explodes off the LOS in a low stance and drives up into the defender, blowing them off the ball
- Ultra aggressive; a tone setter who constantly looks for work and wants to embarrass opponents
- Strong hands with a vice-like grip – extremely difficult for run stuffers to shed
- Impressive athleticism for such a big bodied lineman – an asset pulling and getting downfield
- Plenty of lateral agility to get good depth on his pass sets
- Change of direction speed to intercept any interior pass rush moves
- Positional versatility, having played both guard and tackle spots at Texas A&M
Con's:
- Hands can fall off blocks – intermittent evidence of poor placement
- Grabby when he feels a play getting away from him – will be a target for flags in the NFL
- Has been confused by stunting edge rushers hooking round his perceived block
The Verdict:
“I’m not sure there’s a more complete guard heading into this draft than Kenyon Green. Sure; interior linemen with experience at center may go ahead of him, but as a prospect ready to line up purely at LG or RG, none come more day one-ready than this guy. Phenomenal size and speed, with the tenacity and smarts to match, Green was a versatile and reliable leader on this Aggies offensive line. A true road grader at the point of contact who isn’t afraid to employ the dark arts of blocking when necessary, Green displays surprising nuance and fluidity as a pass protector. He’s a high floor prospect with as little risk as you can ask for and will hear his name called before the first night is done.”
