  Draft Scout by Conference









  The two players who have received the most reps on either side of Brahms at guard this fall have been grad transfer Brandon Council on the left side and redshirt junior Tashawn Manning. Council, who arrived this summer after starting 24 consecutive games (when healthy) at Akron over the last three seasons, has been lauded for his versatility this fall, with the ability to play anywhere along the line, as well as the experience he brings to the position - which is something the rest of Auburn's linemen, Brahms excluded, lack at the college level. "What impresses me the most with him, though, is his versatility," Brahms said. "He can transfer his skills to tackle, guard. It's pretty impressive to watch. He's really quick. I think that's what really makes the difference with him. And getting off the ball. I think that's a key for offensive linemen, getting off the ball, really, before the defense sets. If you can time it up before even the center starts to snap the ball, that's perfect, and I think he does a good job of that. So, I think that's really why he can play all five positions because he's so good."

Versatile grad transfer Brandon Council "feels like he has something to prove" While Council has shown flexibility in being able to move to any position on the offensive line, he has emerged as the favorite at left guard, where offensive tackle Alec Jackson has been the one primarily working behind him. Manning, meanwhile, has stepped up at right guard, where he has been competing with redshirt freshman Keiondre Jones for the starting job. - Birmingham News
