STRENGTHS
—Two-year team captain and two-time winner of Leadership Award for Gamecocks' defense
—Played nearly 2,500 snaps throughout his collegiate career; three-year starter in a highly competitive conference.
—Solid pass-rushing skills can add some versatility as an occasional blitzer; attacks half-man and can use speed and undersized frame to his advantage.
WEAKNESSES
—Tackling consistency is a major concern and will only be exploited further in the NFL; must do a better job of shooting his hands through contact and finishing with his lower body.
—Routinely fails to play the appropriate hip and remain in-phase in man coverage; allows far too many completions.
