has been a prospect that Clifton Head Coach Ralph Cinque and I have discussed some time ago, maybe as far back as Romero’s freshman year. That said, Romero has been a plug-and-play stalwart in the trenches as Clifton has endured personnel changes.
The first thing I see on film is that Romero manages to play with a flat back and his head up. This allows him to really fire out, not up, off the snap of the ball. Additionally, he is asked to pull and appears to rejoice when blocking smaller defenders. His feet are pretty quick as well, as he is able to reach and seal ends, as well as secure speed rushers. In pass protection we see him work his hands up and also chop-to-burry. Run blocking, Romero does a nice job maintaining his base and pumping his feet with short, choppy steps. He will also rip off of defender’s hands when he is climbing to the second level. I want to see Romero’s bend increase. As a result, his ankles/knees/hips/shoulders will all be vertically aligned and generate a tremendous deal of power.

is an intriguing college prospect. Listed at 6’2″ 240lbs entering his junior season he has the frame to add mass and be a quality college player. He has an ideal base that provides balance in the run and pass game. Moreover, why I am so optimistic about Romero is his feet. Romero showcases quick and fluid lateral movement, manifesting itself in his kick step. For a young man his size he pulls with a clear sense of urgency. Another thing college’s will love is that, although primarily a tackle at the high school level, he has taken snaps at center – a skill coaches at the next level do not necessarily want to teach and also caters more to his size. Well coached, Romero showed an instance or two where he uses push-pull technique to gain leverage and turn a defender’s shoulders. He also does a great job executing the chop-and-drop when dealing with pass rushers who are engaged. One thing I was hoping Romero would show on his film was how he powers down. He showed the ability to kick step and block an uncovered 7 or 7 technique, however I was just waiting to witness an edge rusher taking the inside rush lane to see Romero power slide to close the B gap. Romero is a prospect who has huge upside that I look forward to tracking this fall. He also pitched in with 4 tackles (2 solo) and 1 TFL on defense.
