Player Notes
- Cross was a great pass protector playing LT against elite college competition while he also rarely got help in pass-pro sets; he will translate very easily to the NFL
- Has great quickness, a big frame, and elite mirroring ability, which is ideal for a franchise LT
- Wasn’t required to be an impactful run-blocker at Mississippi State
- Has the mobility to be a very good wide-zone run-blocking tackle
- Didn’t have the best run-blocking in gap-sheme runs, though, has the size and strength to improve
