Position:
3 O'Cyrus Torrence
Description: At 6’5” and 330lbs, O’Cyrus Torrence is difficult to move around or through when playing as a guard in the phone booth. He has a quick first step in the run game, and combines his immense size with high effort to finish off a defender. He has a powerful anchor in the passing game, and will not be bull-rushed with ease. Because he is on the interior, he is difficult to maneuver around as well. He can be too aggressive at times in the running game, leaving himself off balance. He needs to remember to keep his head up, both for performance purposes and for his own safety. He lacks foot quickness in pass protection, and often will plant his feet while engaged. Regardless of size, if a lineman plants his feet, he is liable to get run over by the rusher. His lack of lateral agility can lead to holding penalties as well. He can be a starting guard in a power run scheme almost immediately, but will need some technical refinement to reach his ceiling.
