Ourlads' Profile:

2021 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about MALIK HERRING: Georgia, 6032 283 4.90. Two-year starter, Forsyth, GA. Played a versatile role on the talented Georgia front. Has a unique body type that can create different issues for both tackles and guards. Stout and powerful with heavy hands. When he plays the outside, he can get under the pads of his opponent and win with secondary moves. When he plays inside, he can out-quick his opponent off the ball. Wasn’t very productive, but he was a disruptor. He can fill multiple backup roles for different packages. Stocky, muscular build that has farmer-strength in his legs and hands. Has the body of a fire hydrant. Thick lower half that enables him to anchor at the point of attack. Will attack the blocker with his hands while maintaining good balance and pad level. Consistent winner of the leverage battle. Can be moved inside/ outside at the snap of a finger. Will hand fight to maintain quality presence and positioning. Pursues the action down the line well. Strong finisher that wraps up with power. Doesn’t have a true every down position. Too small to play inside the tackles consistently. Lacks an array of rush moves against bigger blockers. Will get caught up in traffic too easily. Was a rotational player that never quite took over a full time load. 2020 stats: 20 T, 4.5 TFL, 2 sacks, 2 PBU, 15 QBH. Fifth/sixth round. (A-32 1/2, H-10 1/2, BP-NA, 10-NA).
