2023 NFL Draft~Nick Broeker, Guard, Ole Miss

Grading scale: 1 Poor 10 Elite COD: Change of direction

Caballero says that Nick Broeker is a tall guard that is also strong. His footwork needs improvement as it appears he is stuck in the mud at times when he needs to work down the line. When he gets his feet moving well, this guard prospect has good speed. Even with heavy feet, his change of direction is surprisingly good.

Broeker’s excellent contact balance makes it difficult for defenders to move him off his spot. Great length with arms as well as strong hands. Uses those strong hands with great positioning to help deliver violent strikes upon initial contact. For being as tall as he is, this guard has a good knee bend technique. Like any prospect with his size, he can be stood up at times by strong opponents in the trenches.

Broeker has a mean streak in him when things get nasty as the big guys engage in contact on the field. Better in pass protection but his solid at run blocking as well. Decent football IQ but needs improvement at the next level picking up slide protections against twists and stunts.
