T Ty Sambrailo- 6'6 311- Ty has good length and quick feet. He posted the 2nd best 3 cone time and the 5th best 20 shuttle times at the combine. He's known for his quick feet and ability to mirror pass rushers in space. Ty started the last 2 seasons at left tackle, but reportedly can play guard and center as well. He's a good fit for the ZBS, which should maximize his athletic ability. Sambrillo plays to the whistle and despite his slender build, does play with some nastiness to his game. He has room to add onto his 6'6 frame. He should be able to slide right in at right tackle for the Broncos, and may be an option for left tackle once Ryan Clady moves on or retires.

Overview
In 2014, selected first-team All-Mountain West while starting 11 games at left tackle. Missed two games with a knee injury. Started all 14 games at left tackle in 2013 and had one carry on a trick play, gaining 11 yards. Moved all over the offensive line in 2012, playing four of five positions. As a redshirt freshman, played in 11 games, starting 7 times. Selected as participant in the Senior Bowl. Lettered three seasons and was a three-year team captain at St. Francis Central Coast Catholic (Calif.), where he played on the offensive and defensive line as well as at tight end and kicker. Played soccer as a junior. Won multiple USSA titles as a freestyle skier. His father, Mark, competed in the pole vault for University of Colorado.
Pro Day Results
20-yard short shuttle: 4.62 seconds
Three-cone drill: 7.37 seconds
Analysis
Strengths Functional athleticism to play on the left side. Releases into space and can hit moving targets in the screen game. Technically sound pass sets. Keeps weight on inside foot and hands in ready position. Very good at sliding feet and mirroring pass rushers. Keeps his hands inside. Jabs pass-pro punch and then hides hands from defender when not engaged. Frame still has room for more weight. Good recognition of twists. Finishes his blocks. Plays to whistle and flashes nasty. Able to make back-side cuts.
Weaknesses Needs work as a run blocker. Inconsistent hand usage in run game. Gets to second level but doesn't always have a game plan once he gets there. Needs to unleash power in hands. Lets athletic rushers get into him without getting arm extension. Will lean at contact in pass pro, creating potential balance problems. Gets jostled and knocked off balance. Core strength issues must be monitored. Short arms for a player his height. Lacks necessary sand to hold his ground when asked to block laterally.
Draft Projection Round 3 or 4
NFL Comparison Tyson Clabo
Bottom Line Evaluators are all over the map on Sambrailo, but I feel like he is an interesting litmus-test player this season. While the feet and movement are pluses, his functional strength could be a hindrance to NFL success. Sambrailo must develop more anchor and power to go with his athleticism or he will get taken advantage of by bull-rushers and edge-setters.

"He's kind of a finesse guy in the passing game. I like his upside, he just needs to keep getting stronger. His athletic ability is outstanding." -- Mike Mayock
STRENGTHS: Very good initial quickness off the snap with lower body flexibility. Athletic to ride defenders on the edges, mirroring and controlling his lateral movements well. Mobile to get downfield and make plays on the perimeter to take out defenders. Consistent technique with a balanced set-and-punch. High football IQ and recognition skills, using angles well. Admirable finishing toughness and throws his body around, playing each snap as if it's his last. Looks to eliminate his man and fight through the echo of the whistle. Active eyes and keeps his head on a swivel, always looking for someone to block. Assertive and competitive leader, playing through pain. Carries himself like a professional and preaches effort and work ethic to his teammates. Charismatic personality and senior captain. Four-year starter, mostly at left tackle, but also earned snaps at right tackle and both guard spots.
WEAKNESSES: Lacks an ideal body type with a pudgy midsection and lean shoulders. Light lower body with struggles to anchor vs. bull rushers -- too easily knocked off balance. Below average functional strength and lacks the upper body power to control or stonewall rushers. Inconsistent leverage off the snap, allowing his pads to rise and leaving his chest open - too easy for rushers to attack his breast plate. Shoots his hands, but lacks ideal length and needs to improve his pop and timing. Aggressive nature tends to backfire at times, lunging and missing his block. Some durability concerns after missing two games as a senior due to a sprained left knee. Also had shoulder surgery (Jan. 2014) after a torn labrum injury early during the 2013 season. Character needs investigated after a March 2012 off-campus knife fight that required 14 stitches to the back of his shoulder and was indefinitely suspended three weeks later for allegedly beating up four freshman students at a party.
