David Hale

OT · Weber State
Four-year starter who helped answer questions about his level of competition with a strong week of practice at right tackle in the East-West Shrine Game. Hale lacks flashy athleticism, making him a late-round prospect, but is a physical presence who plays with technique and determination.

positives

Wide shouldered, proportionate frame. ... Good initial quickness off the snap. ... Effective pass blocker. ... Flashes explosiveness in his hand punch and the lateral agility to mirror defenders in pass protection. ... Physical run blocker who uses his hands well to engage and control the defender. ... Flashes a strong anchor. ... Impressive week of practice at the East-West Shrine Game.

negatives

Marginal foot speed and only adequate overall athleticism. ... Strictly a right tackle prospect, as he struggles against speed rushers. ... Despite his size and anchor, doesn't always play with leverage and can be walked back to the quarterback. ... Can get to the second level, but lacks the body control to sustain blocks against top notch athletes.
