It's true that producer Walt Disney, in appropriating Carlo Collodi's 1883 children's novel, steered it into a homogenized version that, while populated with many of Collodi's creative concepts, is a horse of a different color. The best way, of course, is to revisit the films themselves, which Disney has been happy to make possible with periodic prying open of the "Disney vault." To revisit 1940's Pinocchio is to find a delightfully entrancing musical-fantasy moral parable for children, with enough artful craftsmanship and wit (and lessons in respectable behavior) to please their adult overseers. Can be a little too much upright in his anchor at times, needs to drop his hips more and cement himself in the ground.It can be difficult to set aside the litany of products and spin-offs-theme parks, Halloween costumes, coloring books, video games and the like-and remember clearly the actual merits of a Disney animated film. Still leans forward too much on runs and RPOs, making him susceptible to get pulled off balance by a defender who has established leverage on him. Very flexible lower half, able to flip hips easily.īalance was a big issue with him in 2020, although he spent significantly less time on the ground in 2021. Footwork in his pass sets and of course posses phenomenal strength, which is no surprise given his size. Movement skills for a guy his size is just silly, rightfully so made his way onto Bruce Feldman’s Freak List and finished number 1 out of everyone. Doesn’t always get out and seal off the block. Not uncommon for the defenders to catch him leaning, and propel him forward using his own momentum from leaning against him. Misses initial hand punch on occasion when run blocking. Run Blocking: Still has lapses of leaning forward. Great at picking up delayed stunts and twists. Very good recovery ability is he oversets and the defender counters inside. When he drops his hips, he becomes very difficult to get around.įlexibility: Loose oily hips, able to open them up if the defender goes speed rush the whole way, or he can quickly close them when the defender counters back inside.
Recognizes the more pressing need when multiple defenders are rushing on his side and picks up the one with the quickest path to the QB,Īnchor: Looks a little upright, but I think that’s due to his size. Patient in his pass sets, lets the defender commit in case of a twist or a stunt.įootball IQ: Recognizes defenses fronts very well, can tell when someone at OLB is lining up acting like they’re going to blitz or bail. Gets out of his stance quickly with the torque from his kick slide, doesn’t cross his feet in the pass protection arch.
Has multiple pass sets in his toolbox, can jump set, kick slide among others. Footwork/Foot Speed: Generates a lot of torque with his kick slide.
