Pro Football Focus listed Dickerson as the top-rated run-blocking center (92.8) while ranking No. 2 among centers. Landon allowed only five total pressures and earned an elite run-blocking grade, especially in zone blocking.
Dickerson is a stud in pass protection who has extremely strong hands, so once he gets a hold on you, there is no forward momentum. He’s extremely strong at the point of attack, he has above average hand power, body strength, and awareness. He’s got a very high football IQ, which allows him to pick up stunts. He’s also very patient at picking up linebackers at the second level who are looking to close on his running back.
Dickerson has quick feet, a good shuffle, and he has very loose hips that he can swing to gain leverage and keeping that leverage throughout the snap and read.

SI analyst Jim Mora Jr.: "He’s a big, wide body offensive guard. He’s going to fit best in a power-run scheme where he’s doubling down on the nose [tackle], and then come off and get the linebacker on the second level, which is not something that he does great. But he’s a guy if someone tries and bull-rush him, it’s like hitting a brick wall: Bam!. They’re never going to be able to push him back into the quarterback. There’s value there."
I don't even like Alabama, especially Saban showing his face at the draft.
