Evaluation: Crowder is a high motor type
player at the center position. He has a quick clean
snap and quickly gets into defenders. He brings a
good initial pop and gets good placement with his
hands. When he fires out low he displays the leg
drive and the ability to get movement off the line
of scrimmage. He does a good job of stepping down
and sealing. He quickly gets up to the second level
and displays the ability to get a piece of moving
targets. He can be a little out of control at times
and will get himself overextended. He moves around
well and displays the ability to pull out and turn
up field. He hustles around and will get downfield
to make blocks. He works to stay with and finish
blocks. He displays the ability to be a solid pass
blocker that can play with a nose lined up over him.
He can quickly get set and displays the ability to
mirror rushers. He shows good strength to be able to
slow down a bull rush. Displays good awareness to
pick up blitzers and stunts. Crowder is a bit on the
light side, even for the center position. He will
need to add bulk to his frame as he matures to help
him in the trenches in college. Crowder is a player
with upside and should develop into a solid college
player.
