Summary

Gunnar Helm has good size for the NFL, and all the traits are there for him to be a successful blocker, but he must improve his technique to sustain blocks. Helm does a good job working over the middle of the field and is competitive at the catch point. He lacks explosion into his breaks, but had just a 4.1% drop rate in 2024, according to TruMedia.
