Weight: 322

Film Study

Games Watched: Louisville (2023), Miami (2023), Clemson (2021)

Balance: Rarely caught off balance and those instances can be corrected with pro coaching.

Run Blocking: Shows off top end strength in being able to move the pile or open running lanes.

Lateral Mobility/Athleticism: Better than one might expect for a man of his size.

Point of Attack Power: Outstanding at the point.  Routinely stops defenders in their tracks and puts them where he wants them.

Hands: As one would expect from comments above, shows great hands/grip strength.

Anchor: Rarely loses ground and has little difficulty dropping his anchor when needed.

Strength: The strength immediately jumps out on film.  No issues here at all.

Teams looking for a powerful interior lineman should be watching @BCFootball RG Christian Mahogany. A mauler in the middle who should be opening running lanes for years to come.

Does a nice job of displacing the DL and getting a second level block with the RB right behind him. pic.twitter.com/4zldhoFAYg

Size: Big man with well proportioned frame and thick lower half.

Versatility: Will likely play RG as a pro but ability to move and power could get him a look at RT.

Notes:

Missed all of 2022 with torn ACL and bounced back to play 12 games last season.

Invited to East/West Shrine game where he onlookers had plenty of praise.

Boston College OG Christian Mahogany is one of the top prospects at the Shrine Bowl this year and it shows so far in practice.

Power for days. Consistently controlling and moving guys in drills.

Summary:

With as many needs as the Jets have on the OL, taking a look at another Jersey kid in the mid rounds could pay off.  Likely a round 3 or 4 player.
