Kraig Urbik Scouting Report

Kraig Urbik will be a nice addition to any NFL team. Urbik is the type of hard working, blue collar lineman that makes NFL running games look good. He is a relentless run blocker who plays with a real mean streak. Urbik has played 36 games at guard during his time with the Badgers and played 16 games at right tackle. He lacks the speed to play tackle in the NFL, but his experience against edge rushers will help him with the quicker defensive tackles he'll see in the pros. Urbik has excellent upper body strength and eats bull rushers alive when pass blocking. Urbik is a smart player who can adapt to fit the system he's asked to play in. He is always aware in pass protection and does a nice job of coming off his block to pick up other defenders. Urbik is slower than most teams prefer at guard, but makes up for it with intelligent play and hard work. He is likely to be a third round pick and the fourth guard taken overall. Kraig Urbik had a solid NFL Combine in February. He ran a 5.35 second 40 yard dash, which is a solid time for a player his size. He also showed good technique during position drills. Urbik is still a candidate to be selected in the third round.
