Coaches,
I've been watching last years films in preparation for the upcoming season. Something I've noticed that I've always noticed our linemen have a problem with (and not just ours but lots of young guys) is when they are up against a DT who is fast and good with their hands (or LB). Many times, I've seen our guys go out with the correct approach. The DT swims or rips them, the LB sidesteps at the last seconds or dips and gets through.
What I'm looking for are those extra drills that help the big guys know how to not let this happen and stay on a block. We do the same base stuff that everyone I'm sure does; Board drills, fits, chutes, sleds. Anyone have any unique drills that help with this?
