Scouting Report: Strengths
- Consistently keeps his feet sliding while maintaining power when dealing with speed, often sending speed rushers flying past the pocket
- Outstanding on reach blocks, showing good initial quickness and flexibility to seal the backside. He’s a heady player who is quick to recognize and react to twists and stunts up front, and Scott shows a good sense of timing on combo blocks.
- Consistently lands blocks at the second level, and he finishes strong. As a pass protector, he has violent, heavy hands. Along with a strong initial punch, he has the hand strength to grip and redirect pass rushers.
- In the run game, he explodes off the line of scrimmage and consistently gets out to the second level to do damage.
- Coordinated when moving to the second level as a run blocker, capable of landing blocks on the move.
- Has the functional strength to hold up against the bull rush, and he shows exceptionally quick and precise hands.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- As a pass protector, Scott gets caught reaching and lunging when matched up against quickness.
- Could be a liability against speed-to-power pass rushers early in his career.
- He’s shaky as a pass protector, which is troublesome for the next level. Scott often plays too high with an inconsistent kick slide.
