Duke’s steady, pro-ready anchor at center
In his Duke career, Matt Skura stood out as a tough, intelligent interior lineman with rare consistency, starting 40 straight games at center to finish his Blue Devils run and earning first-team All-ACC honors in 2015. He’s the kind of center coaches love: poised, assignment-sound, strong on double-teams, and quick enough to handle line calls and second-level work. The knock was never effort—it was more about lighter frame and occasional trouble generating movement versus heavy nose tackles. If you want reliability and football IQ, he’s a fit; if you need brute-force mauling, maybe not.
