POSITIVES

—Excellent use of hands

—Patient, sound pass-blocker who consistently latches into the armpit of rushers to create leverage, reset and sustain against countermoves

—Consistent finisher through the whistle in all game situations

NEGATIVES

—Was helped in pass protection by the scheme; extensive use of 12 personnel and TE alignment also helped with play action, roll-outs and quick game

—Didn't face great competition, so there is some uncertainty about how he will handle the jump to the NFL

—Solid but not great athletic ability

OVERALL

Christensen has a lean build with good length and solid athletic ability. He's a good run-blocker in BYU's zone-heavy scheme, using efficient footwork, angles and hands to consistently latch, steer and sustain defenders. He has a smooth pass set and shows good patience, weight distribution and discipline to strike with a strong latch from a firm base.

He shows good competitive toughness to finish all blocks and dump defenders when he catches them overextended. Christensen's skill set and solid physical tools make him a high-floor prospect best suited for a zone-based scheme.
