Pass Protection 39/45

Kelechi Osemele has proved that when he's healthy, he can simply dominate. He provides a level of physicality and attitude that sets his product apart from any other guard out there. The former second-round pick was slowed by a chronic back issue to start his career and had season-ending back surgery midway through the 2013 season. The 51-game starter made a full recovery for the 2014 season and has put together some outstanding football the last two seasons.

In 2015, Osemele showed he has legitimate position flexibility, and as an unrestricted free agent, he'll without a doubt be a hot commodity if he hits the open market.

Osemele has shaped his game to allow his technique to highlight his physical traits and ability, making him fundamentally sound in pass protection. This was verified when he slid out to play left tackle—arguably one of the most difficult positions in football.

Osemele is able to set defenders many different ways and can create space vertically off the line of scrimmage, getting to his spot to anchor or show he can set at a 45-degree angle while maintaining half-man leverage. He does a nice job of picking his spots in jump-setting defenders and is able to punch and anchor right away.

The four-year vet shows explosive upper-body power, delivering a solid punch with the strength, base and ability to leverage with his hands to anchor against the bull rush. He displays outstanding foot quickness and body control needed to post down and take away the inside and shows good usage of his inside hand to leverage defenders. At times he gets too aggressive, looking to throw a devastating punch and ending up lunging and missing with his hands altogether.

Run Blocking 44/45

There is no position blocking or fitting up with Osemele in the run game. Everything he does is with intensity and physicality.

Osemele gets off the ball and shows the strength, power and explosiveness to get consistent movement at the point of attack. He has the ability to lose ground with his first step and gain ground with his second step to reach defenders on outside zone, and he's often able to generate enough force on his third step to overwhelm defenders and put them on skates. Osemele has finished many defenders on reach blocks within the first three steps.

He is outstanding with his targeting, cutting off the backside when the run goes away from him. He takes great tracks climbing to the second level and is relentless when exploding into linebackers, often latching and driving them right into the turf.

Positional Value 7/7
