Ford is an interesting prospect. He's started games at G, T and C in college. That sort of versatility will make him very enticing to NFL teams. His best pro position is probably going to be LG. If the 49ers decided to move off of Tomlinson, he could be someone on the radar. He's a bigger lineman like Banks, also reasonably athletic and light on his feet and could be moved around the OL in a pinch in case of injury. He's definitely someone to follow in the upcoming season.

So....
Washington was trying to be nasty.

Utah guard Nick Ford has improved so much.
He's become one of the more nasty physical lineman upfront. No question he's a better fit at guard than tackle.
Watch him pull and finish here. pic.twitter.com/2vTndTo9B7

Pancake alert! Nick Ford is a beast. He has the strength of a guard but can move like a tackle. I'd love to see him switch to guard full time. pic.twitter.com/Swhep9Bq2k

Nick Ford tossed aside a 6'6", 285 pound defensive lineman like he's a pillow. Geez! pic.twitter.com/kEQ1uaio17

Very nice. Do you think he can play tackle in our scheme or just guard?

OC/OG only but could be a starting OC in a year or two
