is a returning starter at offensive tackle. From the first moment of impact Placek imposes power and force upon his opponent, to a end of driving his opponent down diagonally to his far-side linebacker. His pad level fluctuates, which is ok since I generally think all high school offensive linemen play high anyways, thus indicating that he has the ability to bend. When he is low, he is often attacking the hip of a down block assignment. When he pulls he is often asked to wrap and turn up, keeping his eyes inside when doing so, looking to demolish linebackers in the process. Placek is big and strong enough to win up top against defensive linemen. Pass setting the big man has a solid kick step and can move backwards well. For me I want to see Placek lower his pad level, particularly when pulling. His film would also benefit from showcasing clips of him powering down.
