Beau Benzschawel, OG, Wisconsin #66
6052, 317, 5.28
Notes: From Grafton, WI. Brother, Luke, is a tight end at UW. Father, Scott, played football at Wisconsin from 1983-87. Redshirted in 2014 after battling a knee injury. Played in and started the final 8 games (6 at right tackle, 2 at right guard) in 2015. Started all 14 games at right guard in 2016 and 2017. Major is life sciences communication.
Positives: Good size, long arms and awareness. Powerful punch and manhandles defenders at times. Can fire out on linebackers and is a bulldozer in the running game. Gets downfield.
Negatives: Lacks great foot quickness and struggles against elite speed. Sets too high at times and can be inconsistent with his anchor on pass protection.
Summary: Needs some technical refinement, but flashes dominance and shows up on a lot of highlight reel touchdown runs for the Badgers.
