Scouting Report on Kristofer O'Dowd
by Mike Farrell - 06/20/2006O’Dowd is a mauler along the offensive line, not satisfied unless his opponent is on his back. He gets off the ball very quickly and explodes into defensive linemen. O’Dowd is very strong and often manhandles opponents with his upper body strength, but he also anchors very well in pass protection. He has excellent feet and reads blocking assignments well on the fly. A very heady player, O’Dowd is rarely surprised and often slides off his man to help others. He’s a blue-collar, lunch pail kind of offensive guard.
