Any word on shuttle time or 10 yard start.

I could see this guy as a part of the HERD of BIG MEN.

Find out anything yet? On paper, at least, he sounds impressive.

Orr is a guy who looks good on the tape I've seen. Obviously he has good size. He also has pretty long arms, which allow him to reach defenders and lock them up. For a tall guy, he also plays with a pretty low base, keeping his feet well positioned to maintain solid balance. He needs to get stronger, but the frame is there (although I have him at 6'4") to be a very impressive physical specimen. He's not fast, but not that slow for a big guy. His quickness is better suited at this point to getting position in front of someone. In the film I've seen, he doesn't pull much, as his team tends to run his direction pretty frequently.

With the thinning of the ranks on the offensive line (Boren), I would think offensive line becomes even more of a priority than it was before. Let's get this guy.
