Young Kwak/Associated Press

Casey Toohill, Stanford

LB22

STRENGTHS

—Played out of a two-point and three-point stance at Stanford with experience as a head-up pass-rusher and edge run defender.

—Hustle and effort are evident every play, particularly in collapsing pockets; cleanup guy who will win some sacks late in the play because of energy.

—Smart player with ability to recognize blocking schemes at the line of scrimmage and take on trap/kick-out blocks with leverage.

WEAKNESSES

—Doesn't routinely explode out of a three-point stance at the line of scrimmage.

—So calculated in his moves, particularly as a pass-rusher, that he lacks rhythm or fluidity; looks rigid and will lose reps to experienced players that time his moves up.
