Scouting Report
A classic, stay-at-home inside linebacker, he compiled lofty tackle counts as a short-range run stopper. Delivered value based on his strength, durability and laser focus on the ball carrier. Played downhill and filled the inside lanes; he got square to the target and hit with gusto. His coverage skills were average at best; he lacked the speed and reaction time to track running backs and tight ends. Could also be baited and was slow to recognize play action. Injuries ended his NFL career prematurely.
Long Range Potential: Quality, productive inside linebacker (when healthy).
