Here's a guy I would be happy to get late round 3 or in round 4. Fits the zone system. Can play Guard but is versatile inside.
Great write-up on him
And a good quote describing the ZBS:
"Zone Blocking in the running game is when two or three offensive lineman work in tandem as opposed to each offensive lineman having a specific, predetermined man to block. Zone blocking involves the center, guard, tackle and tight end working in combination to block an area with an emphasis on double-teaming the defensive linemen who are aligned on the line of scrimmage. Zone blocking initally starts out as a double team at the point of attack on the down defensive linemen, but the beauty of it is that one of the offensive linemen will leave to attack the linebacker while one stays to take over the defensive linemen.." - Bob Davie

All that I can comment on is what I saw of him at the combine, and he looked like a darned good athlete there.
He's my favorite guard prospect in the draft aside from Jon Cooper.

Higher than Earl Warford or Watford (I forget which) and Winters?

Yes higher than them. I have Hugh Thornton higher than Winters, btw.
Fragel Rock reminds me of Vollmer in some ways but slower. I question whether he can play in this system. You can't get by at this level just because it's a 50 dollar cab ride just to get around your frame.

I felt like Fragel moved adequately, though not impressively. And executed a variety of style of blocks with good technique.
Haven't watched Thornton. I'm pissed I ran out of time to watch like 50 more prospects. The Arkansas runningbacks (both) for example.

You're right, he's definitely competent. He's not a bad prospect at all. Not necessarily on my target board (mostly on account of system) but he's an adequate prospect which is something I can only say about MAYBE half the prospects that will get drafted. Or at least it's an opinion I'll share with the NFL on maybe half of them.

This. Surprisingly athletic for his build, and I could see him making a very good Guard in the NFL.
