Vladimir Ducasse
NFL Draft Scouting Report

Guard

Drafted in the 2010 Draft by the New York Jets in the 2nd round with the #29 pick.

A raw developmental prospect with high upside who will be asked to fill Alan Faneca's left guard spot.

Three year starter at UMass. 2009 FCS 1st team All American
Dominant run blocker. Shows good balance and dominates at the point of attack
Uses long arms to lock on to defenders and finish blocks
Athletic frame
Has the physical tools you look for in a lineman
Looks the part - has rare size
Good work ethic and very coachable
Immigrated to the United States in 2002 from Haiti. When you listen to Ducasse speak you can hear the desire to succeed in his words

Skills appear to fit best at guard - played left tackle at UMass, but does not have the lack of lateral quickness to play this position at the next level
Needs to use his hands better
Struggles with speed
Talented yet raw. Needs to refine his technique
Awareness is an issue. It will take Ducasse time to completely understand blitz pickups as a pass blocker
Up and down performance at the Senior Bowl. Displayed potential but also showed he is very much a work in progress.
