Game Film Evaluated:
LSU (2014)
Florida State (2014)

Pros: Shows some leg drive and can knock his man off the line in the run game. Looks to finish his blocks. Has quick feet and can really move well laterally down the line, excellent potential in zone scheme. Plays with long arms, keeps defenders off his body. Athletic to get upfield and get to the 2nd level. Demonstrated ability to pull inside from RT to get to the 2nd level and hit the moving target with some pop.

Cons: Will get over aggressive and reach. Struggles to hit the moving target. Lacks power in his hands, defenders can use a rip move to disengage from him. Not dominate in the run game, not a mauler by any stretch. Gets over extended and off balance in the run game. Gives up some penetration to power rushers, needs to add bulk in the lower body to help him anchor. Poor technique and waist bending in the run game.


Summary: Chaz Green is a solid pass blocking offensive tackle prospect, he has played both tackle positions during his time at Florida and has the quick feet necessary to stay there in the NFL. He has work to do in the weight room to get stronger in his lower body to help him anchor and get more of a push in the run game. He needs to clear medically as he missed the entire 2013 season with a torn labrum. He projects ideally to a zone blocking scheme as he is most comfortable on the move when he gets his feet involved even in the run game. He gets off balance and bend at the waist versus his knees as well which can be corrected if he takes to coaching. There is considerable upside with Green but at this point, he can hold his own in pass protection but will struggle in the run game. He needs a year before he can compete for a starting job but the upside is there. As a rookie, he can be an excellent swing tackle and compete for a job in 2016. Solid 3rd round pick.
