Slade Gonzales Slade Gonzales 6'3" | 260 lbs | DL St. Francis | 2024 State NY has elite power and does a great job of using his strength to win at the point of attack. Gonzales does a very good job at using his motor and physicality to not just win but win with ease and do so consistently. Gonzales has good quickness of the ball and his ability to use quickness and power make him a very hard for linemen to contain what Gonzales can do. Gonzales can take the next step by continuing to develop as a pass rusher where more refined pass rush moves and finishing on the quarterback would round out Gonzales game really well.
