TAPE BREAKDOWN
Chase Bisontis epitomizes the “Maroon Goons” nickname that the Texas A&M offensive line goes by because of his mean streak on the field, his power, and his desire to be great. He started all three years he was an Aggie and played at a high level, becoming known for his strength to move guys and to hold his ground in pass protection while playing multiple positions. There are also some impressive athletic moments that he showcased, especially after he shifted to guard. Where he will have to improve is his technical ability with his hands and footwork so that he can maximize his potential.
The power is on full display with his run-blocking skills where Bisontis does a nice job of keeping his feet moving and getting underneath interior defensive linemen’s pads. He is No. 71 in all of the following clips for Texas A&M.

It’s not every day you see this kind of lateral agility for a guard as big as he is. The nimble feet to shuffle in a straight line that quickly to fill his gap is really impressive.

Although this play results in a touchdown, you can see Bisontis really lunge after he’s beaten by the swipe to try and save the block. This was evident in his play enough that he has to work on keeping his feet grounded even when he’s losing/lost the rep.

When he gets his hands nice and tight and the anchor falls in succession, he’s a hard guy to move in pass-rushing situations.

CONCLUSION
Chase Bisontis is the kind of offensive guard who should transition well to the NFL given his experience. He has a great foundation to work from, and his play improved every year. He has a strong work ethic and is business-like in his approach to football, so I don’t see anything except for an upward trajectory with him. He does have a lot of technical aspects to improve in his game, but if he has strong teachers for offensive line coaches, then there is a lot of runway for big things to happen with him.
Bisontis could play in any scheme truthfully, but the best use of his skills would probably be a nice blend of gap and zone concepts. With Steelers LG Isaac Seumalo a pending free agent, Bisontis is a name to keep an eye on because he has the experience playing the position, he’s still very young and moldable, and he has the athletic and strength profile they typically look for.
His body type and game remind me of the Cleveland Browns’ Wyatt Teller, who was really unlocked as a player after Bill Callahan came onboard as their offensive line coach. Bisontis has that same kind of potential if he can continue his growth arc.
