His quickness, lateral agility, and powerful hands allow him to excel in pass protection and offer significant upside in the run game.

A high-end starter potential prospect is a player who is projected to be among the top starters on their team within the second or third year in the NFL. They have good physical tools and athleticism and perform at a high level most of the time. They have some weaknesses, but they are not significant. These players are typically second or third-round picks, and they have the potential to be starters in the league.
