Scouting Report
The Boston College product is well schooled in the details and compatible with any inside or outside position on the defensive line. A renowned battler and tireless plugger, he delivers maximum effort on every down with the strength and explosiveness to make impact plays. Is instinctive in reads and overpowering at the point of attack, often winning on sheer effort. Lacks speed to be an extremely effective edge rusher in the NFL. Scores higher on intangibles than physical assets and will offer value mostly in schemes and with his versatility.
Long Range Potential: Versatile defensive lineman with upside.
