. Carter lines up at right tackle where he is a dominant run blocker. He creates movement off the line of scrimmage with ease then uses his strong leg drive/high motor to finish his blocks several yards down the field. In pass protection, Carter has shown the ability to mirror opposing pass rushers while keeping a strong base and inside position with his hands. Xavier currently holds offers from UT-Martin and Southern Mississippi, and I can see more offers piling up for him moving forward.

. Carter lined up at right tackle this season where he was dominant as a run blocker. Xavier is very explosive out of his stance and does a great job of driving his feet through contact to finish his blocks quickly with a ton of physicality, resulting in frequent pancake blocks. He also proved to be a good pass blocker, showing the ability to fight with his hands to keep inside position while maintaining a strong base. Xavier currently holds offers from Southern Mississippi and UT-Martin, and I expect more to come his way moving forward.

. Xavier has lined up mainly at center where he is a dominant run blocker. He does a great job of exploding through contact to drive his man down the field. Carter finishes his blocks with a ton of physicality, resulting in frequent pancake blocks. He has also proven to be reliable in pass protection, showing the ability to get the snap off quickly then keep a strong base while taking on contact, not allowing for much penetration into the pocket. Carter recently picked up offers from Southern Mississippi and UT Martin, and I expect more to come his way as he continues to develop.
