NFL Draft Summer Scouting Report: Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah Summer is here, and it is everyone's favorite time of the year, scouting time. Every year, we do Summer Scouting to preview college football for Vikings fans, but also give them an idea of names to follow and watch in the fall as needs pop up for Minnesota. Are we going to write about quarterbacks? You know it, but why? Because other NFL teams will draft them, just as they will draft every other position. It all matters whether these players end up on the Vikings, the Bears, or the Steelers. We write these so Vikings fans can be the most informed fans. So if you are still with us, enjoy our latest Summer Scouting report as we prepare you for the Fall. Player Information Player: Caleb Lomu School: Utah Height/Weight: 6-5/295 lbs. Position: Left Tackle Player Background - 4-Star Recruit - Freshman All-American in 2023 - High School All-American - High School Polynesian Bowl Career Stats Heading into the 2025 Season - 15 Career Games - 12 Career Starts Notable PFF Numbers Heading into the 2025 Season - PFF Run Blocking Grade 71.8 - PFF Pass Blocking Grade 76 - 372 Run Blocking Snaps - 425 Pass Blocking Snaps Player Traits - Demonstrates good athleticism - Generates power - Reliable in pass protection - Thrives as a run blocker - Good anchor ability Player Summary Caleb Lomu is one half of a dynamic tackle duo that Utah is boasting this year in the Big 12. In the case of Lomu, he has a chance to be a top ten pick with his size and strength being a perfect blend of athleticism. It allows for him to handle an array of edge rushers that go his way, and because of that, he is one of the more reliable tackles that I have watched this Summer, getting ready for the Fall.
