Jalen Travis, LT, Iowa State
 
I wanted to highlight Jalen Travis because I like him a lot, and if KC doesn't get a tackle in round 1, I think this is the guy I'd definitely target as a developmental LT or Swing. As a note, he graduated from Princeton before transferring to Iowa State, so he definitely has the mental capacity and he's reportedly a very high-character guy.

6'8" 340-pound guys aren't supposed to be able to move like this.

Wow, he looks great to me. Where is he projected to go?

6'8" 340lbs and moves like a cat? Thatll do!

Arm length = 34 7/8”

His #s look good, but he was abused senior bowl week.

He's had trouble with anchor, surprisingly. He needs some work on hands and maintaining pad level/sinking his hips. I can see that flat-out. His arm length is actually a tad short for his height. He's raw. Kind of expect that from an Ivy League guy that only has one year at a major school. He's projected in the 4th-5th round. I've seen mostly 5th round grades.

He would be an interesting Jawaan Taylor replacement with a year of development

Have you reviewed Hollin Pierce from Rutgers much?

That’s a big mother****er.

6’8”
340 lbs
36” arms

Yeah, he's a baby mammoth. I don't know if he's quick enough at LT in the NFL but man is he a large human.

So is Gerad Christian-Lichtenhan whom the Chiefs have a visit with. He's like 6'9", 335 or something. I like his movement, too, much better than Pierce.

These guys are getting so big and athletic it’s insane!
