Wright is a throwback mauler who will bury defenders at the point of attack and make you feel every one of his 348 pounds on gap and power concepts. When Auburn ran duo or pin-pull, he was devastating — burying defenders on doubles, pancaking at the second level, and finishing with genuine nastiness. The problem is everything that happens when the play doesn't go according to script: his heavy feet, wide hands, and stiff hips leave him exposed against interior rushers with any kind of counter-move repertoire or lateral quickness, and his pass protection regressed in 2025 as pressure totals spiked. He's a scheme-specific Day 3 bet on a gap-scheme power guard who needs a coaching staff willing to build around his strengths and hide his lateral deficiencies — if the running game clicks, he can be a physical, tone-setting starter in the right system.
- Overwhelming power at the point of attack with violent finishing ability — led Auburn with 33 knockdown blocks in 2025
- Excels as a pulling guard in gap schemes, consistently getting clean engagements at the second level
- Massive frame (6'5", 348 lbs) with natural functional strength that can overwhelm smaller defenders and create movement in the run game
- Chippy, physical demeanor and nasty playing temperament that sets the tone at the line of scrimmage
- Solid anchor against bull rushes when set square with proper base — demonstrated this convincingly at the Senior Bowl vs. LT Overton
- Heavy-footed with below-average lateral agility — struggles to redirect and recover against speed rushers and counter moves
- Plays short by leading with head and shoulders, resulting in subpar leverage and overextension on angle blocks
- Pass protection regressed in 2025 with pressure totals nearly tripling; vulnerable to stunts, delayed blitzes, and gaming fronts
- Hands land too wide and placement is inconsistent, undermining block sustain even when he wins the initial punch
Similar profile to Turner's later years — massive, powerful guard who dominates in gap schemes and at the point of attack but whose lack of lateral agility limits his effectiveness in pass protection and space-blocking concepts. Wright's ceiling is a power-scheme starting right guard; his floor is a heavy-legged backup who gets exposed by speed.
