STRENGTHS
Danny Shelton is a monster of a man at 6’2” and 339 pounds. He’s the ideal nose tackle in a 3-4 scheme and is the type of two-gapping anchor you can build a defense around. He’s not a pass-rusher; rather, he's a player who sets up the pass rush by collapsing the offensive line from within. Shelton is an unmovable object against the run and can sit down and squat on double-teams. He dominated at the Senior Bowl by simply sitting down and keeping the center-guard combination from getting upfield push. As a pass-rusher, he does have some scoot and burst off the line, and he’ll use his power to walk the center back.
