Exclusive betting insights only at USA TODAY.<\/a><\/p>\nFa\u2019amoe checks in at 6-4, 311 pounds with near 34-inch arms. He uses his reach to get into the chest of defenders and with his anchor, he doesn\u2019t get bullied into the pocket. He\u2019s an aggressive puncher. He\u2019s hyperfocused and has alert eyes. This past season, Fa\u2019amoe gave up two sacks and 20 pressures. His lateral quickness is a concern and that could lead to a kick inside to guard.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFa’amoe is at his best utilizing his length and power to mitigate power pass rushes,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cHe does not have the foot quickness to consistently mirror, creating soft edges against speedier pass rushers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fa\u2019amoe works hard to sustain as a run blocker. To use one word to describe his run blocking, gritty. He has functional mobility when he gets out in space.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFa’amoe excels in moving edge rushers and defensive tackles on double teams up to linebackers and is solid in one-on-one base blocks at tackle,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cHe leans on defensive linemen in the run game and is physical and powerful enough to produce knock backs in the run game.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fit with the Packers<\/p>\n
The Packers have a pretty strong track record of drafting college offensive tackles and kicking them inside to guard. Fa\u2019amoe could be the next in line.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHe will likely move to guard at the NFL level,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cHe lacks the ideal foot quickness and recovery ability to live out on an island, but his powerful frame and ability to generate movement in the run game would be enhanced at guard.\u201d<\/p>\n
With Aaron Banks at left guard and Anthony Belton likely to be the starting right guard, Fa\u2019amoe could provide depth at both spots and could serve as the backup for Zach Tom at right tackle.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI would draft Fa’amoe to develop into a mauling guard that can provide depth and be a spot starter earlier in his career,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cHe already has the power and anchor to handle the bull rushes if he moves to the interior, but if he can bring his feet more consistently with him as a run blocker and protect his outside shoulder better in pass pro, he’s a lineman worth developing into a swing interior linemen.\u201d<\/p>\n
Since taking over as general manager in 2018, Gutekunst has drafted 12 offensive linemen on Day 3 of the draft, with three of them coming in the seventh round. With his frame, power and ability to play guard and right tackle, Fa\u2019amoe could be the next offensive lineman Gutekunst targets late on Day 3.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Feb. 20, 2026, 5:48 p.m. CT The Unpacking FuturePackers Countdown is a countdown of 100 prospects who theGreen…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":765757,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2072],"tags":[95878,7,41,345,2514,2513,6,428,95980,95981,95882,97616,96027,101900,95976,95896,95888,95895,95906,98563,98560,95883,95881],"class_list":{"0":"post-765756","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-green-bay-packers","8":"tag-accessfree","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-green-bay","11":"tag-green-bay-packers","12":"tag-greenbay","13":"tag-greenbaypackers","14":"tag-nfl","15":"tag-packers","16":"tag-sstssportsnflpackers","17":"tag-sstsnpackers","18":"tag-tagamerican-football","19":"tag-tagbrian-gutekunst","20":"tag-tagcollege-sports","21":"tag-tagelgton-jenkins","22":"tag-taggreen-bay-packers","23":"tag-tagnational-sports","24":"tag-tagnfl","25":"tag-tagnfl-hub","26":"tag-tagoverall-positive","27":"tag-tagrasheed-walker","28":"tag-tagsean-rhyan","29":"tag-tagsports-news","30":"tag-typestory"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116106056762928982","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/765756","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=765756"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/765756\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/765757"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=765756"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=765756"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=765756"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
