Tyrell Crosby | North | OT | Oregon
At 6-foot-5, 320 pounds, Crosby isn’t from the line of speed offensive lineman you’d expect from a spread offense like Oregon. He packs a good punch in run blocking, and was the left tackle of a unit that saw running back Royce Freeman become the Pac-12’s all-time leading touchdown scorer.
Crosby shuffles his feet well, but against stronger pushes off the line, he has a tendency to get knocked back. He’s does that to stay light on his feet in pass protection, but he needs to be able to have quick feet one moment and anchor down against a power rush the next to be a tackle in the NFL. We’ll see if he can in Mobile.
