NFL Impact: Okung is a massive, dominant offensive tackle who has started since his true freshman year. A durable player, Okung is surprisingly strong against the run, and stalled out or dominated the majority of star defenders he faced. He has exceptional agility, quickness, and understands the game. He is a week 1 starter at left tackle and has all the makings of a 10 year franchise left tackle teams covet. Okung does need to get a bit stronger, and has been known to get a bit lax when "bored" against inferior competition. Overall, he appears to be a cant miss prospect. What are your thoughts on Okung?

Here is a video showing the pros and cons of this prospect:

It should be noted that Mitch Petrus, G, Arkansas had the most reps of anyone at the Combine with 45 (!).

His family owns a car dealership here in Little Rock and I'm going this weekend to try and arrange for a 10-minute phone interview.. Let's see how this goes. LOL
