Old-school mauler who brings genuine violence to the run game and plays with a finisher's mentality that will endear him to offensive line coaches everywhere. Jatta's anchor is legitimate — he held firm against power rushers at BYU and posted strong early-season PFF run-block grades — but the athletic limitations are real and showed up as the competition stiffened throughout the Big 12 schedule (season PFF grade dropped to 64.1). Speed rushers with elite bend will eat his lunch at the NFL level, and the winding path from JUCO to Colorado (11 games, one start) to BYU means he's essentially a one-year starter at the FBS level entering his mid-20s. The floor is a power-scheme right tackle or swing tackle who can compete for a roster spot; the ceiling is a low-end starter on the right side for a team that keeps things simple up front.
- Nasty run-blocking temperament — finishes through the whistle and hunts pancakes with genuine aggression
- Strong anchor against power/bull rushers, giving up minimal pressures in pass protection at the college level
- Adequate hand-fighting and recovery quickness to bail himself out of initially losing reps
- Positional versatility — played guard and tackle at JUCO, left and right tackle at BYU/Colorado
- Limited foot speed (projected 5.28 forty) creates significant concerns against NFL-caliber speed rushers off the edge
- Susceptible to inside counter moves when he overcommits to the outside rush — gets caught leaning
- Only one full season as a starter at the FBS level (BYU 2025) after a redshirt at Colorado with 191 total snaps — very thin experience at the highest level
- PFF grade regressed from elite early-season marks to a middling 64.1 season grade as competition level increased through Big 12 play
Similar profile — big-framed tackle with power and anchor who found a long NFL career as a right tackle in a run-heavy scheme despite limited athletic upside. The kind of lineman who sticks around because he plays hard and blocks reliably between the tackles, even if he'll never be the guy protecting the blind side long-term.
