In need of shoring up the tackle group, Norton is a great pickup for the offense the Chargers are tailoring towards.

Norton possesses a towering frame at 6-foot-8 and 307 pounds with excellent athleticism and movement skills. He is suited best for for a zone scheme with his ability to pull and execute reach blocks. His tentacle-like arms serve him well as he shows the ability to keep rushers away, creating a wide arc.

Norton does struggle with pad level issues given his height and anchoring against bull-rushers.
