Expo, Tell me about what you saw in Ethan Pocic at center here at LSU, please. Floor is yours. Txtgr24 ain’t playing either.

I thought he was physically gifted but it seemed like he was out of position. I don’t care that he was a really tall guy but guys seemed to get inside him pretty easily at times and completely take his leverage. They just bulldozed him. I never understood it but assumed he didn’t have the feet for tackle and was a really smart guy so they needed him at center. He wasn’t some bum but it seemed like he had problems with a strong bull rush or with anyone with a strong low center of gravity. I know this isn’t a hot take. It was pretty obvious. Just seemed like he was never as physically dominant as I thought he should be.

Edit- that was in college though. Seattle is a pretty good organization. It’s not unusual for guys to be misused in college. I’m not going to second guess nfl guys. He was probably a necessity at center because of lack of a better option.
