While Suamataia (6'5/326) faced just five P5 programs in 2022, BYU transitioned to the Big 12 in 2023 which resulted in the hulking left tackle facing P5 teams in 9-of-11 contests. Despite the jump in competition he excelled in pass protection, giving up two sacks and 13 pressures for an 86.1 PFF pass block grade that ranked ninth-best in FBS. Suamataia struggled in the run game with a troubling 3.1% blown run block rate which fueled his 52.9 run block grade. For perspective, 52.9 was the lowest run grade for any of the top-50 graded pass protectors this year. He moves with a coordination that belies his massive body, recording a 1.73s 10-yard split that ranked in the 93rd%. Suamataia’s 9'02" broad jump charted in the 87th percentile, while his impressive 31 bench reps ranks third amongst his 2024 OL counterparts and in the 94th percentile of historical NFL Combine tackles. His 9.38 RAS verifies the BYU bookend’s athletic credibility, as the thickly built tackle has the requisite mean streak to go with seamless feet/hands coordination to disrupt most pass rushers. He has plenty of core and grip strength to hold the point of attack against stout IDLs and stay centered. Can knock edge rushers off their line with a well-timed punch and is malleable enough to play the left or right side when called upon. His 34 ¼” arms are acceptable but not ideal, and his feet can drag in recovery. Overall, Suamataia is a thickly built swing-tackle who can offer above average pass protection on both left or right side, albeit with somewhat limited range on run plays.
