| Pros: Antoine Caldwell #59 – Offensive Center –When Caldwell was a freshman, Alabama was struggling with injuries at the center position. Caldwell was placed in at center during the Cotton Bowl, and has kept the job ever since. The next season, Caldwell was voted offensive captain as a sophomore, so he’s developed a leadership quality from an early stage of his career.
Caldwell is a tremendous chip blocker who can block a defensive lineman and quickly move to the second tier of the defense to hit a linebacker or safety. Caldwell has excellent footwork during pass blocking and can maintain his blocks very well. Caldwell maintains a low center of gravity which is excellent when he moves to the NFL level.
|
| Cons: Antoine Caldwell has very little weaknesses, although he's listed as 305 pounds; but his playing weight is more like 295 pounds. Can Caldwell handle a bull rush from a large NFL defensive tackle? I think he can, based on his good technique and center of gravity. |
| Overall: Antoine Calwell should be taken in the second round. He won't be available in the third round. |

Antoine Caldwell
Scouting Report by Dave S |
| Pros: Big guy smart player makes good calls at the line! If he makes it to the 4th round esp. the late 4th he is a good value pick for a team looking to roll the dice and upgrade the O line from the inside out. I could easily see a team who is looking for a good back-up the first year and wants to get younger at Center picking him up. I don't see a team drafting Caldwell to start. |
| Cons: I'm just not sold on him and not sure he can get to the second level in the pro's. Unlike Mack and Luigs I don't see him starting his first year. I would even go as far as saying Unger might be a better prospect. |
| Overall: I think Caldwell will be a solid player and with some work with a good line coach on his footwork could add great depth to a team willing to wait for production. |
