LT Overton

● Stout, versatile frame, with room to get up to 290 pounds (if desired) ● Balanced athlete for his size, both in space and when working through contact ● Plays square in run game and uses long arms to control point of attack ● Lower-body power and strong hands help him leverage vs. double teams ● Has bull power and long-arm force to walk blockers backward ● Put different swipes and quick club moves on tape ● Encouraging fluidity on stunts and when working around blocks ● Not a vocal leader but well-liked by staff and teammates (NFL scout: “Accountable. Not going to rock the boat.”) ● Versatile experience at almost every D-line technique

● Tweener body type ● Stacks well but inconsistent shed quickness ● Inconsistent snap anticipation — often late off the ball ● Late transitioning to counters or secondary pass-rush moves ● Tends to forecast rush plan (four-plus pressures in just two of 13 games in 2025) ● Doesn’t get pushed back often but can be pinned inside ● Run-game losses often come from having elevated pad level ● Gets out of control at times as a tackler

A starter for one-and-a-half years at Alabama, Overton played the “Bandit” position (70 percent of snaps over, or outside of, the offensive tackle) in defensive coordinator Kane Womack’s multiple scheme. He was part of Jimbo Fisher’s famed 2022 recruiting class at Texas A&M, which featured eight five-star recruits, including Overton, Walter Nolen and Shemar Stewart on the defensive line. After two seasons with the Aggies, he transferred to Alabama but heads to the NFL with a mediocre resume (12.0 tackles for loss in 49 games). Evaluators are split on whether Overton fits in the “versatile” bucket or the “tweener” pile — there is a case to be made on each side. He is a gap-sound, unselfish run defender and uses his long arms to get extension into contact and control blocks. He has force behind his 357 Back to table of contents -- 361 of 629 -- hands and a strong base to set firm edges, although he needs to be more efficient ridding himself of contact. He moves well for his size and has inside/outside rush upside, but his technique and overall plan aren’t there yet. Overall, Overton isn’t yet the sum of his parts and hasn’t turned the flashes into consistency (and there is no guarantee he ever will), but the potential is enticing from a player who’s still very young. His ability to fit different schemes and alignments only bolsters his draft projection.
