Scouting Report
A very tough competitor with plenty of resiliency, he is a reliable run stuffer with flashes of pass-rushing acumen. Is ideally suited to play the role of defensive tackle in a 4-3 scheme. Displays leadership qualities. Could use more bulk to become a more optimum interior D-lineman at the highest level. Does not wow in any one area of the game and is more of a jack-of-all-trades type. At times, he lacks intensity in the NFL.
Long Range Potential: Quality, versatile interior defensive lineman.
