He demonstrates very good initial quickness off the LOS, maintaining a good pad level while exhibiting strong lower-body power and foot quickness. This enables him to establish inside leverage, utilizing effective hand placement, strength, and timing to disrupt defenders and displace to create running lanes. Goodwin shows good technique in reach and zone blocks, with impressive reach and arm length. His quickness is accentuated in all pass sets as well. He maintains a very strong anchor in pass protection, showcasing control through robust lower body and core strength, as well as effective hand placement. He is also aware of potential stunts, which highlights his high football IQ. He can mirror defenders effectively due to his lateral quickness, COD, balance, and strong base.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Note - ESPN 300</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/goodwin2026/status/1991518033492472143?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/goodwin2026/status/1991518033492472143?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1509132"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-691fa5c263889"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1509132' first='Ja'Marcis' last='Morning'] continues to be highly underrated.
