A zone-blocking run scheme that emphasizes agile and athletic linemen capable of reaching and sustaining blocks in space.
Immediate starter at left tackle with Pro Bowl potential due to his athleticism and footwork in pass protection and zone blocking.
A power-gap scheme that requires frequent phone-booth battles and relies on raw upper-body strength to move defenders.
Kalil's athletic profile makes him a natural fit for schemes prioritizing mobility and finesse over brute force on the offensive line.
Selected #4 overall in Round 1 of the 2012 NFL Draft by Minnesota Vikings out of USC.
