Scouting Report
A prolific and intense tackler. He was a very good playmaker overall, and could get to the quarterback when not piling up stops against the run. He brought some range too, and made plays in coverage. Showed great instincts, was fundamentally sound, and he could really anchor the defense in the middle of the field. He was quite injury-prone due to his aggressive style of play. While a good athlete, he's wasn't very fluid in space. Sometimes his intensity boiled over into unnecessary penalties.
Long Range Potential: Star tackling machine linebacker.
