“They got a great one,” Osovet said.

It looks like it on film.

The massive Traore is a road grader, a punishing offensive lineman in the the run game with the feet and quickness to make all the blocks Matt Canada’s offense will ask him to do. He’s long, powerful, can bend and also brings versatility at the point of attack.

“He has everything you’re looking for with a kid in regards to technique and football IQ,” Osovet said. “He has all those things along with being 6-8, 315-pounds.”


I hope the QB, WR, and RB prospects are taking notice of the potential this O line has now. Open running lanes and time to throw the ball, just what the doctor ordered.

Whats the story on why Traore ended up at a JUCO in the first place? Academics or late bloomer?

He will absolutely going to be the starting LT next year. No doubt in my mind. He will be a very good one for us.

Charles played very well at LT. Charles is going to be a 1st rd pick if he stays healthy.

I believe Charles stays at LT. He has the experience and played better than a LT has played since Lael Collins.

I'm going thru the schedule trying to figure out which game Grimes will move him to guard or center.

I'm pretty sure that was more of a Les thing.

I agree, Charles sticks at LT. I hope Weathersby comes back but I think he is gone. Regardless, the offensive line could be really really good next year!

Gotta be strong at the LOS in the SEC with OL/DL; 2018 looks very promising!

Why did he go JUCO.

This is a huge red flag for me. Did he develop late? Grades? What’s the deal.
