I’m not evaluating college DL at the moment but this rush from Mesidor stopped me in my tracks. The fluidity and speed at which he clears the corner here is really impressive

Travis Burke might be the most violent finisher in the 2026 OL class. 6’9, 325 and you’re getting 5–7 knockdowns a game — not cleanup, not scheme… full-body, torque + drive finishes. Film room with Memphis RT ↓

Colts OL coach Tony Sparano Jr on how he teaches pass protection hand usage. Two hands. Independent strikes. Circle punches. Flashes. One thing that stood out: He avoids teaching OL in absolutes & instead teaches progression, reactions & confidence. Good football discussion.

One thing Lane Johnson emphasized that young tackles often miss: Pass protection is not just getting into your set. It is route concepts, QB depth, defensive copy, set lines and staying choreographed with the players around you. Really good teaching section here from our Pass Pro Lab conversation.

New on Substack: PASS PRO LAB with Chiefs LT Josh Simmons. We studied his rookie tape, pass-pro problem solving and current & former elite LTs like Tunsil, Bolles, Peters, Armstead and Bakhtiari. One topic here: why Simmons is moving beyond heavy snatch usage, Andy Heck's Hamilton teaching and the Mitchell Schwartz influence. Full film room + timestamps:

Lane Johnson is entering year 14. This will be the first time he has had a new OL coach. He'll also be in a Shanahan-adjacent system. What sorts of things might be different? We talked about a lot but here's one I'm excited about: more change-up & jump sets, especially off of PA

Laremy Tunsil doesn't seem to change much no matter who he's facing. Josh Simmons & I studied why. Squareness. Cleats in the ground. Consistent hands. Staying patient without giving away leverage. One of the better Tunsil discussions I've had. Pass Pro Lab:

One of the coolest parts about studying certain OL is seeing them finish and run downfield to protect/congratulate/pick up their guys. One of the most consistent guys at it is Dalton Risner. 33 examples from his 2025 season 👇

Spencer Brown was lights out yesterday against the Broncos with several impact blocks. He has been a personal protector for Allen scrambling right all season, a weapon in the screen game and dialed in on an island using a potent snatch-trap technique and effective change-ups.
