Draft Scouting Report

Rating: 78.93 (Reserve/backup)

Pro Comparison: Donovan Smith

Summary

Anthony Belton took the left tackle mantle over from Ickey Ekwonu for the Wolfpack the past three seasons and didn't disappoint. He allowed all of 12 pressures this past fall as the burly tackle proved difficult to get through. That's a rarity for an almost 350-pounder. Belton carries that weight with ease and delivers it often to opposing defenders. While he has some glaring issues on tape, he'll do damage in a gap scheme at the next level if those are cleaned up.

About

Career: Three-year starter at left tackle
2023: Third-team All-ACC

Strengths

Big-boy pop on contact. Easy power
Easy mover out of his stance. May look like a guard, but pass sets like a tackle
Can manipulate defenders out of gaps with upper body torque
Engulfs defenders in pass pro. Will take them out of play entirely

Weaknesses

Base creeps too wide and he can't react laterally
Rarely get more than one shot from him in the run game. Ability to sustain is lacking
Out over his skis into contact too often. Falls on face when he doesn't get a clean shot
