Solid and hard worker.
Needs some time to develop, but has great feet and bends well.

Extremely tough physically and really tough mentally. Above average athlete. Average strength. Probably a good 3rd tackle for the next 5-7 years for a team. Shoulder won't allow for starting career.

If he stays healthy he can be really good, might have been first round material if he played this whole season
Favorite OL this past year and knew it was lights out after he went down.
In 4 years that both started ( 3 for Datko cause of the injury ) it was Datko > Sanders and it wasn't even close

Looks that way.... First had surgery on his left shoulder when he was a junior in high school.

If that shoulder holds up he will be a solid player

Unbelievable pass blocker, mediocre run blocker.
Runs well on screens
If he recovers from his shoulder ding he could be a good one.

Too bad Datko got thrown to the wolves so quickly. Who knows how good/healthy he could have been if he had a RS year. Hate to say it, but I don't think he'll last long in the NFL. As a NOLE and PACKER fan that sucks.

Yeah I heard some doctor breakdown how stupid it is to play kids at OL right away and it was a great post and made a ton of sense
If I could find it I would copy and paste cause it was a great read, and he centered it around Datko's situation and Sanders and how they couldn't get that strong cause they couldn't lift as much during the season cause of the fact they started
And how at a 17/18 year old shouldn't be playing a full season of snaps while trying to gain so much weight through lifting heavy too
Datko was asked to start right away at 267 then gain over 40 pounds while starting a full season
