Actual scouting reports on Carimi in
pass protection:
Quote:
Carimi is a powerful and dominant run blocker, and exemplifies what Wisconsin football is all about. A dedicated worker, Carimi also has tremendous size and strength that allow him to consistently overpower his opposition. His blocks are nearly impossible to shed when he is attacking the the defensive linemen (i.e. run blocking). However, when asked to drop back and pass protect Carimi’s poor footwork and mobility are exposed.
Quote:
At 6’7″ 315 its not surprising that Carimi struggles to move laterally. But is this really cause for concern at the next level? It depends. If you’re drafting Carimi with the intentions of making him your LT, then yes it’s definitely concerning. Carimi just shows no sign that he is going to be able to pass protect elite edge rushers at the next level. Carimi struggled in college going against guys like Adrian Clayborn and if he can’t do it in college, why would he be able to do it in the NFL?
Quote:
Carimi:
* Needs to use his hands quicker to strike in pass protection
* Tendency to allow pass rushers into his chest, Lost leverage and strength
* Used to pull in the run game, Good feet with good movement
* Clearly needs to learn how to use his hands and arms in pass protection, but that can be coached
* Driven back in pass protection too many times versus ASU
Quote:
Carimi:
* Balance and body control issues in pass protection versus MICHIGAN STATE
* Not a top athlete for LT position, May transition to NFL as a RT
* Clearly more of a physical OT than a finesse movement OT
* Utilized as a puller in the run game, Not athletic but effective
* A very good run blocker, Physical and relentless
Quote:
Carimi:
* Head-to-head matchup with DE Clayborn versus IOWA
* Looked more fluid when he pulled in the run game
* Good initial leverage with the ability to strike quickly in the run game
* Balance and body control issues after initial contact as a run blocker
* A little bit of a wide base in pass protection, Can be coached
* Needs a lot of work as a pass protector
* Not a top athlete and at times struggled with balance and body control
* At this point an initial strike pass protector, Not a smooth athlete
* A physical pass protector more than an athletic pass protector
* A more effective run blocker than pass protector versus IOWA
* Struggled at times with edge rush of Iowa’s Clayborn
