Draft Profile: Bio
T.J. Bass from Mt. Baker High School was rated a 3-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 3-star grade by 247 Sports. Following high school, Bass opted to join Oregon.

In 2020 as a freshman Bass saw action in 7 games and played a total of 386 snaps for the Ducks. He allowed 5 QB hurries, one QB hit, and no sacks while playing at left guard.

As a sophomore in 2021 he played in 14 games and a total of 931 snaps. He conceded 12 QB hurries, no QB hits, and 2 sacks while playing the majority of his snaps at left tackle, and the rest at left guard.

In 2022 as a junior Bass saw action in 12 games and totaled 827 snaps. He gave up a disappointing 17 QB hurries, 2 QB hits, and no sacks while playing at left tackle.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Bass is a work in progress with high-end physical traits. He’s extremely light on his feet for a 300-pounder, a natural knee bender who plays with balance and leverage.
  • 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 Bass shows a good sense of timing on combo blocks.
  • Shows a good feel for combo blocks, and he displays good quickness and flexibility when moving to the second level, capable of sealing the back side on reach blocks
  • Has a strong, flexible core, and the ability to absorb and anchor against the bull rush as a pass protector.
  • He’s a fluid mover in pass protection, with great coordination between his upper and lower body. Bass sets with a wide base, has the requisite core strength and plays with natural balance, capable of sitting back and handling power.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • He’s often too mechanical as a pass protector, oversetting and getting beat inside.
  • Has good-not-great feet. Dealing with speed on the edge will likely be a problem, especially because he’s more comfortable moving forward as a run blocker than Bass is retreating as a pass protector.
  • His physical gifts were enough to get by against collegiate opponents, but he had trouble with bull rushers when facing quality competition, which is potentially a problem in the NFL.
  • Has enough power in the run game, but at times he seems to lack a mean streak.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
