Penei Sewell Draft Profile

Strengths

With nothing but respect, Penei Sewell is a freak. Despite being a massive 6-6, 325-pound player, he has the athleticism and agility to maneuver with defensive backs in space. He also has the speed to get to that second level, making him an unbelievable weapon to have for a speedy running back looking to run outside. Sewell has great hip technique, which only amplifies his natural physical power. He buries defenders once he gets his hands on them, which is scary, since he is still only 20 years old. With no exaggeration, he is one of the best offensive line prospects to enter the NFL Draft in some time, and he could very well be the best overall player in this draft when all is said and done.

Weaknesses

Playing in the Pac-12, not only did he face lesser competition, he faced smaller opponents. On top of that, Oregon ran a lot of screens, which showed his athleticism in space, but limited the amount of one-on-ones and close-contact battles he faced. He will see a larger jump in competition than most top offensive tackle prospects, and his decision to opt out of the 2020 season may add onto the adjustment time that may take place.
