OL Matt Peart Senior Bowl.....

What a great smile. He also seems genuinely happy and proud to show off the UConn helmet.
That said, what was different for him that enabled him to develop and thrive at UConn versus the other O-linemen who are leaving?

I think its called talent. Throw in some loyalty as well as Peart could have left last year.

I wouldn't be surprised to see VanDemark get drafted next year.

Well, he is leaving. Players do not want to lose for four years. No one does. This will be a problem until we start going to bowl games.

Odd how one calls him technically skilled with good footwork and techniques while another calls him raw.

He is not raw. This is a very experienced player. To some degree almost all NFL rookies are "raw". A lot of it depends on the system a team plays. If an offensive lineman is not asked to do certain things in college, say reach blocking or getting to the second level then you could call him raw. And no one on the Senior Bowl field has played against an NFL defense, they all have much to learn. Different scouts have different opinions depending what they are looking for. That's to be expected. But in Peart's case, he is fundamentallly sound.

I'm really loving all the love for Peart.

>> 87. MATT PEART, OT, UCONN
Possessing elite-level grades at each facet, Peart was by far the Huskies' best player in 2019. He finished the year with an 86.0 pass-blocking grade after giving up just seven total pressures on his 415 pass-blocking snaps. Peart also had a 90.1 run-blocking grade, the fourth-highest in the country, while he was one of only six tackles with elite grades in all facets this year.<<

Two of three days so far (last two):

Matt Peart is making himself some money this week with his practices. The coaches watch practices and put more into them than game day. I still think he is not worse the a day two pick, when teams need tackles to protect their investments.

This makes him sound like a pretty elite tackle, no?

Missed out on the fan grip and grin today but I'll be at game tomorrow.

Remember when people were posting Peart wasn't good? That was funny.

Peart was an alternative mention on SNY Jets blog for senior bowl players to watch. Not a Jets fan, but I'm guessing if he got drafted by the Jets hes a started by the end of next season

Matt Peart is getting some serious attention from Belichick and co.

The Patriots were keen on UConn's Matt Peart and FAU's Harrison Bryant at the Senior Bowl.
