Senior Bowl Positional Detail: Guards

North Squad:

1. Kraig Urbik, 6-05.3, 323 lbs.- Urbik was one of my favorites. You would see him smiling while he was playing physical. That's his style. He is limited to phone booth type of stuff, but the smaller the space for him, the better. He's also strictly a right guard, so he has to start to carry value.

2. Andy Levitre, 6-02.3, 306 lbs.- He's sort of a tweener, and needs to become more versatile. He struggled when he had to move his feet, which was sort of his forte. He's more of a puller/trapper, so he's got to go to the right team.

3. Trevor Canfield, 6-04.4, 311 lbs.- He did well at times, but is still just a late round guy. He had trouble moving his feet when times were tough, which was the norm for most of the blockers.

South Squad:

1. Tyronne Green, 6-01.5, 305 lbs.- He moves his feet well, and has a little bit of a streak going for him. He put in a solid week, although the south didn't have the defensive tackles that the north team had to deal with.

2. Anthony Parker, 6-01.7, 310 lbs.- He looked the smoothest of the natural guards, which isn't saying much, since there wasn't a strong class. Some of the centers will move to guard, but I think Parker can start on Sundays.

3. Herman Johnson, 6-07.3, 382 lbs.- He looked out of place, he doesn't belong in this atmosphere. Who invited him? He's big, but so am I. I wouldn't have him on my board, he's not at all an athlete. I don't think he can move within a phone booth, let alone deal with someone who can move a little.
