Draft Scouting Report
Rating: 86.95 (Pro Bowl potential)
Pro Comparison: Graham Barton
Summary
Grey Zabel played LT at a high level in 2024, but he's also played RT, LG and C in college. His NFL future is almost certainly inside, where he has a chance to become a special player on Day 1. When he's technically sound, he's patient in pass sets, times punches well and can anchor vs. bull rushes. Technique can break down vs. NFL-caliber speed rushers, hence the move inside. He moves really well laterally, mirrors well in passpro, and he's both athletic and powerful as a run blocker.
