Strengths:
• Extremely hard hitter, even out of space
• Very sound tackling technique
• Strong at the point of attack
• Instinctual, always goes downhill
• Can cover in both zone and man
Weaknesses:
• Overaggressive, overpursues in run game
• Terrible at shedding blocks to make plays
• Doesn't have great speed or explosiveness
• Work ethic has been questioned
• Lack of self control, commits personal fouls
Injury History:
• Reportedly had a hamstring injury since the Combine
Notes:
Entered senior year as a potential Top 10 pick but fell off quickly after numerous maturity concerns and one of the worst offseasons for a prospect ever -- Mediocre athlete with plenty of maturity concerns, but high upside due to his instincts and big play ability.
