POSITIVES
– Solid instincts as a run defender to key and diagnose plays and beat offensive linemen to the spot.
– Takes on blocks with his hands and has decent upper-body strength to get extension.
– Works his hands well to escape blocks.
– Sure tackler who wraps up and rarely misses.
– Physical and uses his hands well in coverage to help disrupt routes against tight ends.
– Good pass-rusher when blitzing. Shows a rip move, cross-chop and shoulder dip that he can win with. Also has the strength to run through/bull-rush running backs.
NEGATIVES
– Older prospect. Will be a 25-year-old rookie.
