Turner starts at tackle but is a guard all the way in college. Playing tackle helped him with his feet as he has quick feet for someone his size. Turner drives defenders off the ball and he plays with a mean streak. Getting his weight down in the 320-range is something that he will need to focus on in the future along with coming off the ball low and keeping his balance. Turner is very strong and has a bright future inside at the next level.
