STRENGTHS

WEAKNESSES

  • He has long arms, long legs, and a bulky frame.
  • He can play physically against the run at the point of attack and shed blocks to make the tackle.
  • He plays with a high motor and runs all around until the sound of the whistle
  • He accelerates and can win with pure speed off-the-line scrimmage with a burst of speed to throw off the tackles target. 
  • He uses an arsenal of pass-rush moves, varying speed to power, and his long arms to counter blocks.
  • He plays with a twitch, and his bulky frame has an excellent bend with power.
  • He will use his bull rush to collapse the pocket quickly, spin inside or out, and beat the blocker.
  •  Against NFL linemen, he lacks the ideal size and strength to match up against the run.
  • He needs to add about 20 pounds of muscles and get stronger to play on every down at the next level.
  • At Appalachian St, he struggled against the run and was pulled out of games.
  • With RPO, misdirection, and quarterback runs, he will over-pursue and relinquish his edge.
  • He demonstrates poor eye discipline when he drops in coverage and gets caught staring in the backfield.
  • He looks uncomfortable dropping in coverage and may become a pass-rush specialist.
Draft Projection: 5th - 6th Round

NFL Comparison: Samson Ebukam (Indianopolis Colts)
