Madden Sanker

The 6-foot-4, 297-pound lineman with a 78-inch wingspan has a frame and build where he can trim and lean out while in turn adding mass in his upper body. He has solid definition in his lower body that will continue to get stronger as he grows and matures. Sanker has good body control and shows good agility in his movements. The flexibility that he possesses is decent and will improve over time with work and development.

The power and physicalness that he plays with stands out when he makes contact with his opponent. Does a good job of clearing through traffic to get to the 2nd level to engage linebackers in the run game. Once he latches on the defender he has strong hands and upper body strength to sustain the block. In the pass game his technique is above average where he shows patience with his hands and timing of his punch. Adequate in his capacity to redirect once the defender changes directions and his to adjust on the move to pick him up. In terms of the bull-rush he is able to anchor down and strong enough to stalemate the pressure of his opponent.

Sanker brings a mauler, aggressive mentality to the field in his play. As a guy who plays both tackle and guard his future projects more to the interior, where he will be able to refine his game. The talent is there to play both guard spots at a high level where he should be a multi-year starter at the Power-5 level.
