Cole Madison| Guard | Washington State | 6'5" - 308 lbs.

Overview
Madison's athletic ability, foot quickness and ability to sustain blocks on the move make him a desirable target for teams who want offensive linemen who can excel in space. However, his lack of anchor in pass protection will likely be targeted by pass rushers looking to for holes to exploit. A move inside to guard could benefit Madison, if he can add strength and play with better knee bend.

Strengths
[list]

Gets out of his stance and into his work quickly

Good athlete who excels as move blocker

Gets upfield to lead the charge in screen game

Races to get feet into proper position on reach blocks

Establishes hand positioning early in rep

Won't stop working to get blocks sealed or turned out on run play

Light on his feet with a quality mirror

Refuses to just give away his edge at the top of the rush

Slides feet through contact to help ride edge rushers around the pocket

Makes arm extension and locking out a priority

Good pace in his kick-slides and would benefit with more quick-sets and fewer lateral sets

Reads and react to games up front[/list]

Weaknesses
[list]

Benefits from up-tempo pace and quick passing attack

Lacks experience firing off the ball

Play strength is average and needs to win with technique and positioning

Carries too much weight back in his heels on pass sets and allows speed-to-power rushes to roll him back into the pocket

Needs to maintain knee bend

Gets too straight legged at contact and can be bounced around

May lack desired arm length as NFL tackle

Will panic and grab when punch timing goes awry

[*]Lack of length and anchor will be continuing concerns for offensive line coaches[/list]

He’s a little tall for the interior, but I think they like his flexibility. Potential backup at RT. Fits the analytics too, apparently. Get definitely move on the second level.
