Weaknesses
Few tests on his schedule at defensive end.
Pad level is a consistent nemesis due to his height.
Needs to improve footwork to become more efficient on work-up blocks.
Over-strides on the initial step, allowing entrance to inside shots.
Pass-setting strides are too long and lethargic.
Leans and collects the rusher rather than sitting back and punching.
Needs more mass and muscle to withstand power rushers.
Lacks desired twitch to handle quick-developing twists.
Matt Waletzko definitely helped his stock at the Senior Bowl.I disagree on not being able to play. Looked like he dominated at the senior bowl to me.
I think he is the backup LT right away.
Who is saying he can’t play tackle?Drafting 2 tackles who can't play tackle.... awesome
Was thinking the same but Jerry just said on the PC that adding Matt, we won't be seeing a vet swing tackle brought in.Matt Waletzko definitely helped his stock at the Senior Bowl.
I know it was mentioned Thursday night that Josh Ball would be 'competing' with Terence Steele at right tackle, but I expect Ball to be the swing tackle.
Waletzko probably gets a red shirt year, but we'll see what happens when the pads are on.
It'll be a step in the right direction if we can keep scabs like Ty Nsekhe from getting a phone call to re-join the team.

The run blocking should improve with more experience and coaching but his habit of leaning in pass protection reflects core strength concerns. If his pass posture isn't fixed as a right tackle prospect, power rushers will eat him up.
Jerry just said getting Waletzko means we won't be seeing a veteran swing guy. Not sure you should expect a fifth-round small-school guy to take care of that need.

He will be blocking for a $40 million a year QB. If the QB wants better protection, he can rework his contract and pay for better protection. Don’t spoil Dak.posting for my buddy:

TruthYou can get that feeling about any player that’s drafted at this stage. Our biggest need is on the OL so he’ll be given a good opportunity. We’ve lost two starters on the OL, Tyron can’t stay healthy and we need depth.
