War Room Report Scouting Report
C Rankings

C2 - Samson Satele, Hawaii Samson Satele

NFL.com Profile

Height: 6-2
Weight: 278
40 yard dash: 5.26
Grade: 73
Strengths:
Samson Satele is a pass blocking extraordinaire, coming out of the passing frenzy that is the University of Hawaii. Samson Satele possesses above average awareness and instincts and it helps having experienced playing offensive tackle, offensive guard, and center during his collegiate career. He has that mean streak that is fundamental with most centers. Many scouts have compared him to Kevin Mawae, and the War Room Report believes that this is an adequate comparison.
Weaknesses:
As good as Samson Satele is in the passing game, he may have his difficulties in the running game in the National Football League. He has virtually no run-blocking experience and may not have the mobility and quickness that scouts look for to be considered a “complete” interior offensive line prospect. Weighing in at under 300 pounds, Samson Satele may have to bulk up at the next level , or he will have extreme difficulties keeping massive defensive tackles out of the offensive backfield. Samson Satele could also use some work on using his hands to best assist his blocking technique.
Overall:
Samson Satele would be best suited to stick to one position in order to fulfill his full potential in the National Football League. Versatility is great, but coming from an offense that passed over 90% of the time, Samson Satele needs to work at the craft of becoming a full-time center in the NFL. Fellow center prospect, Ryan Kalil, is as excellent a prospect at the center position that the NFL has seen in some time, but Samson Satele has virtually the same potential. I would expect to see Samson Satele get drafted sometime in round three.
