summary
summary
Caleb Banks is a long, physically imposing interior defensive lineman with SEC-caliber size and disruptive upside. At 6'6", 325 lbs, Banks possesses rare length for an interior defender, allowing him to control gaps, obstruct passing lanes, and collapse pockets with power.
After transferring from Louisville to Florida, Banks developed into a key rotational presence capable of aligning across multiple interior techniques. He wins with extension, heavy hands, and flashes of pocket push rather than elite twitch or suddenness.
While consistency and pad level refinement will define his ultimate ceiling, his size-length-power combination gives him NFL projection as a rotational interior disruptor with starting upside in the right scheme.
