He is not going to be another Aaron Donald, who beats OG with his quickness. But Tillery has power and leverage, and once he gets better at his hand placement, he is going to be a monster. He has to land his blow closer to the middle of the chest, instead of clubbing guys in the shoulder.
He also needs a bit of work on staying low and firing out low. At 6'7" he has great natural leverage. In college, he can get away with giving some of it up, but he needs to stay lower and drive into the OG/C and power through them.
He is the kind of player who can be more physical, 2 gap style player who can drive the pocket back into the QB and flush them out to the DE. He needs to be better and more consistent with his run fits and hand use, especially against the run. But so many rookie DL have that same issue.
