Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Austin Jackson

Summary

Kelvin Banks Jr. has good size to play offensive guard or offensive tackle at the next level. He has good athleticism and quickness to reach block and climb to the second level, as well as cut off backside blocks. The tackle will lean on opponents in the run game and drive his feet, but struggles to sustain blocks. He has good patience working through his pass sets and does a good job adjusting his feet when engaged. Banks occasionally opens his hips too wide and gives up the angle to the quarterback.
