Weaknesses

  • Leverage / Pad Level — At times, Bozeman can be too high-marked, which affects his leverage in run or power-blocking situations. SI

  • Lateral Agility — Not the most nimble center; may struggle when required to reach quick-moving defenders on stunts or second-level blocks. SI

  • Explosiveness — While powerful, he’s not especially explosive or sudden, which may be a challenge in quicker pass-rush matchups.

  • Draft Pedigree / Ceiling — As a 6th-round pick, his upside was never viewed as elite; he's more of a reliable starter or backup than a franchise-building guard or center.

  • Mobility Constraints — His size, while a strength in power, can limit fluid movement in space, especially in zone-block schemes that demand lateral mobility.

Fit & Outlook

Bradley Bozeman projects as a steady, veteran center on a line that values physicality and reliability. He’s a great fit in pro-style or power schemes where his strength and blocking persistence can shine. With the Chargers (as of 2025), Bozeman provides experienced leadership, dependable snaps, and a stabilizing presence in the interior. Looking forward, his outlook is as a long-term starter or high-quality depth piece: he may not be a superstar, but he offers tremendous value as a center who knows how to anchor, communicate, and execute. As long as he stays healthy, he could be a cornerstone for whatever offensive line he's on.
