Stars
Strengths:
Good size...Very quick and athletic...Great instincts...Excellent hands and ball skills...Elusive in the open field...Tough and physical...Can dispense the knockout hit...Gets a good jam at the line...Will come up and support the run...Confident...Developed into more of a leader as a senior...Can also contribute as a return man...Has a  ton of experience.

Weaknesses:
Speed is merely average at best...Lacks a burst...Can be too aggressive at times...Takes some chances...Will miss some tackles...May struggle to turn and run with wideouts in man coverage...Needs to work on his technique and transition...Probably won't be a good fit for every team.
