Pass Blocking:

Very nimble athlete with good foot speed. Did not look out of place at all playing left tackle at Georgia this year despite his massive size. Gets into his stance quickly and shows surprising agility. Has long arms that he uses to engage defensive lineman and keep them off his body. Very powerful anchor and despite playing a bit high at times can still recover to hold his ground. Gets a little sloppy with his hands and will occasionally hug defenders. Leads to him not being able to sustain his blocks and could draw some holding penalties. Not elite off the line and can be beaten by more explosive players which hurts his ability to be an elite left tackle in the NFL.

Grade: 4.0

Run Blocking:

A true mauler who blocks till the whistle. Gets upright too quickly off the snap and hinders his ability to really drive defenders back. However, shows the ability to effectively control his man and take him out of the play. Bends at the waist a little too much and this hurts him when trying to block at the second level and it limits the time he can engage defenders. Needs to do a better job of keeping his feet pumping when locked on. When he gets everything right though he can toy with defenders.

Grade: 3.0

Mobility:

Is very athletic for his size with good foot speed and overall athleticism. Looks good when pulling and is very effective at leading through the hole. Can be a bit sloppy when in space as he reaches and bends at the waist and will whiff on blocks. However, more than adequate once he reaches the 2nd level and can seal off linebackers well.

Grade: 3.0

Technique:

Glenn has all the tools but he gets sloppy with his technique. Most of this is correctable though. He has a solid knee bend but does have a tendency to bend at the waist, especially when run blocking. Can get a little sloppy with his hand placement at times. Gets upright too quickly off the line when run blocking and can occasionally whiff on blocks. Has good footwork and shows the ability to engage and control his man with ease. Can be slow to react to the snap count. Overall, has some issues but should improve with coaching.

Grade: 2.0

Mean Streak:

I think if someone asked me what having a “mean streak” was I’d show them some Cordy Glenn film to explain. Absolutely does not stop blocking till the whistle and will punish anyone that gets in his way. Will knock defenders to the ground and make sure they stay down. Not afraid to mix it up with lineman and will throw in a couple of extra shots. I haven’t seen him do anything dumb yet but with the flopping in the NFL nowadays, he could see a couple of late hit penalties.

Grade: 5.0

Intangibles:

4 year starter in the tough SEC. Is very versatile and can, and has, played multiple positions. Has the footwork and athleticism to play outside at tackle, even on the left side, but has the size and strength to be a great guard as well. Has an outstanding motor and doesn’t stop blocking until the whistle is blown. Has no major injury concerns and no known off-field issues.

Grade: 4.0

Outlook:

Glenn has some technique issues that he has to clean up but that’s what training camp and off-season workouts are for. When you look at him as a whole he is a very impressive prospect. Not many guys that are 6’6 and nearly 350 pounds can move as well as he can. He’s got the footwork and length that makes me think he can play tackle in the NFL. While he’ll likely start out on the right side, he can play left tackle in a pinch and do it quite well. He’s also versatile enough to play inside at guard. However, right now his strengths are more as a pass blocker than run blocker and it’s why I think he’ll be better at tackle. If he does clean up his technique he can pretty much play anywhere. He has tremendous potential, think almost Ogden-esque.
