Frazier

Not ideal for a rookie fifth-round pick to miss the entirety of training camp. We’re guessing there’s a chance Frazier winds up on IR at last cuts. Even in a desert of vague PUP listings, you can always count on the Lions to have some concrete injuries.

The move cost Detroit a seventh-round selection to move up from pick No. 182. Frazier stands out as a pass blocker. He posted an 88.0 PFF grade, not allowing a single sack all season. Frazier shows a ton of versatility. He started 39 games at LSU, including stints at left guard, right guard and right tackle. In 578 pass blocking snaps, Frazier didn’t allow a single sack. He’s also reliable, playing over 900 offensive snaps in his senior season at LSU. Frazier has a nice frame for an offensive lineman in the NFL, standing at 6-foot-5 and 317 pounds. As a run blocker, Frazier is a bit inconsistent. He isn’t very quick off the ball. Frazier also isn’t very powerful with his hands. He also has short arms, which doesn’t help him control the line of scrimmage. Overall, Frazier is an elite pass blocker. He shows potential as a run blocker, but isn’t polished in certain areas. He fits more of a depth piece, with the potential to become a starter.

Frazier (6'5/304) started all but one game this season for FIU, and boasted a 76.3 offensive grade per Pro Football Focus, which included a 74.6 pass blocking grade. LSU will be losing three starters from its 2021 offensive line, but the addition of Frazier, a former two-star prospect from the 2020 class, could help lessen that loss for new LSU head coach Brian Kelly. Frazier was rated as the no. 1 overall offensive lineman in the transfer portal.
