Scouting Report
A very punishing and focused tackler, he lined up his targets and knocked them down when he got locked in. Showed good improvement over time both in penetrating into the backfield and dropping back into coverage. Was valuable on special teams, as well. Was a little one-dimensional at the highest level. Lacked great awareness in pass coverage and the mobility to recover well. Did not make many plays in pursuit and was not an instinctive reactor.
Long Range Potential: Decent inside linebacker.
