The Takeaway

The Player

Bisontis is an athletic interior offensive lineman with sound footwork and good experience as a three-year starter. He plays with a wide base and works his hands inside as a run blocker. He gets good push and doesn’t release too early on combination blocks. His 40 time is outstanding for an interior offensive lineman, and it shows on tape. He takes sound angles and quickly reaches linebackers when he releases up to the second level. His range and agility make him a good fit for zone-heavy schemes.

He’s not an overpowering drive blocker. He can stall once he’s engaged, and he gets stood up at times. His arm length is well below average for an interior offensive lineman. He falls off blocks. He ducks his head and lunges at defenders. His lack of length hinders his ability to get his hands on defenders in space. He adjusts to line stunts, blitzes in the run game, and tracks linebackers well as a combination blocker, but he’s inconsistent in locating his assignment when he pulls. 

He gets set quickly as a pass blocker, and he’s tough to shake once he latches on. He anchors well for the most part. He recognizes and passes off defenders picking up line stunts. His lack of length shows up in pass protection as well. He has some problems staying in front when pass rushers get into his frame. He gets beaten to the inside too much for a player who moves as well as he does on tape and tests as well as he did at the combine. He gets caught flat-footed, and he appears to react late at times.  

He started 13 games at right tackle as a freshman, but he’s not long enough to play offensive tackle in the NFL. He fits best at guard, where he started 21 games over the past two seasons. He declared for the draft as a true junior. 

The Draft

Bisontis’s short arms make him an outlier and will hurt his draft stock, but he is a top-five offensive guard and a potential top-50 pick in this class based on his tape and testing. He’s one of four Texas A&M offensive linemen who could get drafted this year. 

The Projection 

Bisontis has the frame, quickness, and agility to overcome his lack of length and develop into a starter. Alijah Vera-Tucker played tackle as well as guard at USC and has short arms and a similar athletic profile, though Bisontis’s arms are even shorter than Vera-Tucker’s, and his college tape isn’t nearly as good.
