A supremely confident offensive lineman, he played with a lot of aggression and a mean streak. He was also athletic, with the feet and strength to move the pile. He used smart hand placement and a great punch to jar defenders, and he moved well in pass protection. Played with good bend and leverage, too. Versatile, he could play both guard and center effectively. His intensity sometimes boiled over and he would play out of control and too aggressively at times, leading to far too many flags. Also, he could be a team distraction due to behavior issues on and off the field. Was prone to injury early on in the NFL but wound up playing longer than expected.

Long Range Potential: Excellent but volatile interior offensive lineman.
