Hurst (6-7, 310) answered doubters with a solid performance against Jadeveon Clowney in the 2013 season opener. Hurst won their one-on-ones and kept Clowney from getting to the quarterback. However, Hurst could use more power for moving defenders at the point of attack. He was generally solid against Georgia Tech and defensive end Jeremiah Attaochu, but did allow a sack to him. Overall, Hurst does well against speed-rushers, though he doesn't make a big impact as a run-blocker.*

Hurst had a quality 2012 season blocking on the ground for Giovani Bernard and in pass protection for Bryn Renner. It was Hurst's third-straight good season for the Tar Heels, and the junior could have warranted early-round consideration if he had entered the 2013 NFL Draft.*

Hurst was a freshman sensation in 2010. He started 12 games at left tackle and graded out at a high level. Hurst stayed in the lineup as a sophomore and had a good season blocking for Bernard.*

i like Hurst but i think what you see is what you get with him. not all that fluid but he gets the job done. I worry about run blocking and bull rushes at the next level with him. looks like RT is the position to be filled and that is the bull rush side.

that is why Moses is still my pick ahead of Hurst. I think your only begin to see what this kid can do. man o man what improvement in his game for 2013, dropping some 30 or 40 pounds has made a world of difference in his pass blocking. tell you this there is a who's who's list of DE will be drafted ahead of him that he shut all them down.

I watch a lot of acc games stuck in the east coast.

Moses is the Rodney Dangerfield of the 2014 draft.

necks out on the chopping block with this kid now
