<p class="text-gray-700">Hill is a big bodied two way lineman at 6'2" 270 pounds. Strong hands and stuffs vs the run on the defensive side. As an offensive lineman he mauls in the run moving bodies at his right guard spot.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Dones is a 6'0" left guard that has a good build. Strong lineman that holds up very well in the pass game. Sets and is strong enough to take on bull rushers along with having good technique. Intrigued with what we saw on tape.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">This 6'1" 265 pound right tackle/ right guard is a good athlete that pulls well in space. Hits hard and has pop. Anchors well in pass pro and doesn't give up any ground.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Gaines is a 6'1" 285 pound right tackle that we feel could be best sliding in to play at right guard. Wide base and is light on his feet for his size. Plays with physicality and pulls well in the run game.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Hillman is a 5'11" 260 pound thick bodied and compact left guard. Blocks very well in space especially as a lead blocker on screens. Pulls well blowing up the pathway for his runner. Road grader in run game.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The following evaluation is based on Schwendeman's sophomore tape as there was none available from his junior year. The 6'5" 250 pound offensive lineman has a long and lean frame. Will definitely need to continue to add strength. As a right tackle he brings solid athleticism and technique to the table.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Zamora is a lineman that can play on both sides of the ball. On the offensive line he is a left tackle, but at the next level might need to kick inside to guard. Physical build being able to hold up well vs the pass and can move bodies in the run. Also plays on the defensive line at DT where he is a good run stuffer.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Ramirez is a 5'11" 245 pound undersized offensive lineman. Lines up at left guard. The thing that stands out about him is his athleticism along with how well he blocks on the move. Could even see him being a fullback in the right system.</p>
