Scouting Report: Strengths
- Displays good awareness when it comes to reading moving bodies, effectively reacting and adjusting. Bostick also shows a good feel for combo blocks.
- Bostick has the size teams look for at the tackle spots, and that is probably enough to get him a look as a swing tackle.
- Coordinated when moving to the second level as a run blocker, capable of landing blocks on the move.
- A smooth mover and covers a lot of ground, working hard to mirror rushers; agile and keeps his feet moving.
- Finishes and doesn't quit; competitor with a positive attitude and leadership traits that coaches admire.
- Quick-footed with smooth movement skills to cover a large area. Rangy with above average lateral ability. Bursts off the snap and sets up quickly with little wasted motion.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Heavy-footed with an inconsistent kick slide. He’s going to have an awful time with speed rushers if asked to block on an island; he’s likely going to need help on the edge regardless.
- Doesn’t display the agility and speed to effectively get around as a pulling guard. Bostick generally struggles in space, and Bostick will have a tough time consistently landing blocks on the second level
- More of a waist bender with subpar feet, and he too often ends up reaching and lunging when going against quickness.
