Final Report
Febechi Nwainu is a standout guard out of Oklahoma. Nwainu has an interesting build for a guard. He has good length with 34-inch arms and isn't super wide. He started every game for the Sooners the last two seasons. He has good experience at both guard and center, although most of his time was spent at RG at Oklahoma. Before Oklahoma has also spent some time at RT at North Texas. Nwainu is a great in pass blocker. His long arms stymie pass rushers and he's great at anchoring down against power. He's good at pressing back into rushers instead of constantly ceding ground. His concerns in pass pro appear with more complex assignments such as processing and picking up blitzes and stunts. As a run blocker, Nwainu is decent. As a puller, Nwainu is pretty good at staying tight to the line and kicking out players violently. He's generally powerful but he struggles to complete blocks in space on the 2nd level. Nwainu projects a useful rotational lineman. His positional flexibility will give him opportunities in spot starts. He's a 4th round talent.
