Oversized swing lineman who has made a five-year career out of doing the dirty work nobody else wants — 49 starts across three positions at UCLA, showing the kind of veteran savvy and positional awareness that masks genuine athletic limitations. DiGiorgio understands leverage and timing in pass protection, stays square in his sets, and plays with a finisher's mentality in the run game. But the 5.36-second 40 was the slowest at the entire 2026 Combine, his upper-body strength is a concern against NFL bull rushes, and his 32 3/4-inch arms make outside tackle a non-starter at the next level. He's a backup-caliber interior lineman whose best path to a roster is as a smart, versatile swing guy who can play guard, center, and emergency tackle — the kind of player coaches trust in the meeting room even if the physical tools cap his ceiling.
- Elite positional versatility: 49 starts across RT, LT, and RG with teams already talking to him about learning center — four offensive line coaches and three coordinators in college have prepared him for scheme adaptability
- Veteran awareness and football IQ: understands positional leverage, spatial awareness, and timing to compensate for athletic limitations; stays square in pass sets and finds work as a clean-up blocker when uncovered
- Competitive toughness and motor: plays through the whistle, finishes with authority, and showed well against live edge rushers at the East-West Shrine Bowl despite being a late-round projection
- Solid run-blocking technique: comes off the ball with good pad level despite 6-7 frame, rips upward hand strikes, and can unlock his lower half to roll hips into blocks
- Severely limited athleticism: ran the slowest 40 at the entire 2026 Combine (5.36), ranked 20th among guards in athleticism testing — movement skills are a fundamental ceiling-capper
- Below-average upper body strength and mass: can be knocked back by average bull rushes inside, lacks the anchor to consistently hold up against NFL power
- Inadequate arm length for NFL tackle (32 3/4 inches): projecting inside is consensus, but even at guard his range and ability to connect against moving targets is a concern
- Won't provide impact at the second or third level in the run game: limited ability to reach and sustain blocks on linebackers due to movement limitations
DiGiorgio's own agency represents former UCLA OL Jon Gaines II (4th round, 2023). Similar profile: versatile college lineman from UCLA who played multiple positions, projected as a backup-caliber interior lineman with scheme adaptability but limited physical upside. Both are smart, tough, scheme-versatile players who project as swing interior linemen rather than starters.
